Sebastien - valgrind seems to hide the crash - i.e. running with valgrind I cannot make the panel crash.

The test case is very simple - Unity isnt affected by this.

#!/bin/bash
COUNTER=0
while [ $COUNTER -lt 50 ]; do
  echo Loop $COUNTER
  let COUNTER=COUNTER+1
  sudo apt -y install mtpaint gimp simple-scan
  sudo apt -y remove mtpaint gimp simple-scan
done

I'm going to dig a bit further to see if I can narrow down which of the various combinations of ubuntu specific patches is causing this and if I can simplify the proposed patch in anyway.
