Ok, I realize that my description is not sufficent enough to reproduce the bug.

I spent some time to discover what makes the difference ...

It is step 1 in my original description, where I have to give more details:

1.0 Create a new menu in Applications. (Here it is located under -but not
within- "System Tools")
1.1 Move the new menu down, to be at the bottom (The starter "Add Applications"
should then be above the newly created menu.) 
1.2 Create a new starter withing the new menu. (Not sure if this does matter ...
I created a new one and did not drag an existing one into it!)
1.3 Close smeg.

This way I can always reproduce it and then the stacktrace is stable and looks
like this:

To fix the damaged account, one has to:

1. 'kill -TERM <pidof users gconfd> 
2. remove the directory ~/.gconf/apps/panel/objects/object_<X> where <X> is some
number (if there are ore than one of these, most probably the highest number is
the damaged one)
3. killall gnome-panel


Hopefully this helps you. If there is anything more I could do tell me.
