Should not crash while trying to start the sync menu

[Natalia Bidart]

Using U1 nightlies in my fully updated Precise box, I'm getting:

2012-09-20 23:59:41,813 - ubuntuone.SyncDaemon - ERROR - [Failure instance: Traceback: <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>: object.__new__() takes no parameters

]
None

Syncdaemon gets stuck in the INIT state and never progresses to a useful state. It does not sync any file.
