Downgraded to beta5 and couldn't reproduce, however couldn't start more than 7 instances (Out of memory) with plenty of free RAM left.
Then I updated to hrev58244 and couldn't reproduce either but still OOM.

(Out of memory) with plenty of free RAM left.
That can happen if applications "reserve" far more memory than they actually use, so this isn't a bug in Haiku.
If you can't reproduce the KDL even after testing, then may we should just close as not-reproducible. Though seeing as the KDL looks like a use-after-free, it may actually be unrelated to the recent VM churn...

After starting several GIMPs starting even small built-in apps (like Terminal) throws Out of memory.
I will try some more to reproduce this GPE.

That's what I'd expect. As long as things go back to normal once GIMP is closed, then all's well.
Does it happen on beta5?
