[apport] gnome-panel crashed with SIGSEGV in strlen() after using the "Run Application" dialog

[joehill]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I encountered (and reported) this problem back, I think, when I was using Breezy. For a while it seemed fixed, but it has started happening again: I invoke the "Run Application" dialog and run a command, and either as the "Run Application" window is coming up or right after I run the command, gnome-panel crashes and restarts. This has been happening pretty consistently. I'm now using a different computer than when I last reported this bug, now with Feisty installed.
