Comment 2 for bug 910586

The funny thing is the error goes away if I put traceback.print_stack() into the /usr/share/pyshared/ubuntuone-control-panel/ubuntu/controlpanel/web_client/libsoup.py insde the _handler() method of WebCLient class

  File "/usr/lib/ubuntuone-control-panel/ubuntuone-control-panel-backend", line 28, in <module>
    dbus_service.main()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntuone-control-panel/ubuntuone/controlpanel/dbus_service.py", line 616, in main
    run_mainloop(loop=loop)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntuone-control-panel/ubuntuone/controlpanel/dbus_service.py", line 582, in run_mainloop
    loop.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntuone-control-panel/ubuntuone/controlpanel/web_client/libsoup.py", line 55, in _handler
    traceback.print_stack()

As you can see from the traceback the _handler() is being called from loop.run() which is native code - and that is the moment when things go wrong - If I put time.time() inside the run_meanloop() it spits out a number, when I do the same inside the _handler() - it yields NaN....

having the traceback.print_stack() inside the _handler() magically fixes the problem - it is correcting the state of time module so subsequent time.time() invocations bellow the stack would work again ....
