Maybe I spoke too soon: several hours later network-manager is using about 50% CPU. The main things that have happened in the meantime according to daemon.log are:
* I used vpnc to connect and disconnect to a remote network.
* A virtual network used by vmware-server has been regularly requesting and receiving DHCPREQUEST/DHCPPACK.
* eth0 has also been regularly requesting and receiving DHCPREQUEST/DHCPPACK and re-binding to the same IP address.
* hald mounted and unmounted a USB drive (NetworkManager reports whenever it sees such a drive).
Also, the screen saver has been active.
However, I can't see anything in the log that looks like a network-manager crash, so perhaps this is a separate bug?
