Bug Description

I recently upgraded my Dapper installation and it seems update-notifier has now stopped working with v 0.41.12
I only see a blank space in the notification area in the panel and nothing else. When I do a backtrace with gdb, I see this --

#0 0xffffe410 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
#1 0xb745187d in poll () from /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6
#2 0xb74f96e8 in g_main_context_check () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0
