Public bug reported:

Affects: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
In up to date dapper, enabling accessibility prevents the user from
logging in with a GNOME session (even a GNOME failsafe login). I think
this is a GTK problem, but apologies if it is not - I don't know the
interdependencies in this area.

In particular, the GNOME failsafe login should not fail due to a problem
with an optional feature configured in gconf.

There is no meaningful error message from GTK when starting a failing
program. It does not indicate a crash at the commandline - just exits
after initialising GTK accessibility and bonobo accessibility.

I will set up another user to try to reproduce this safely and obtain
more information.
