gnome-panel crashed with SIGSEGV in ORBit_c_stub_invoke()

[Sindhudweep Sarkar]

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Gnome fails to start after logging in through gdm. Gnome starts to load various parts and then fails in gnome panel spitting the user back out into gdm. The only workaround is to switch to a different xsession like kde or xterm.
