I hit (probably) the same bug --- made connecting to my PC via VNC practically impossible.
Ubuntu 12.10, using gnome-shell. After a few minutes of remote VNC operation (using JumpDesktop from an iPad), gnome-settings-daemon crashes, and after that all the applications come out "ugly".
Worse still, logout-login did not solve the problem, because now gnome-shell didn't start again (respawning too fast), reboot needed.
I do not have a track (yet) so I am not sure this is the same bug --- but it's easily reproducible. I will try to trigger it when I have a bit of spare time and report the track.
Nasty.
