[Bug 89015] gnome-panel crashes and gets stuck in a loop

[clearzen]

Public bug reported:

I was using wine to create a .iso image from a exe file designed to
create a .iso after I had created the iso successfully I tried to
extract the image to my desktop. Then I recieved the following error and
it now shows up whenever I boot into my desktop. The only workaround I
found is to either make gnome-panel unexecutable or telinit 1 and
starting the root desktop where gnome-panel seem unaffected. Here is the
error report:

Memory status: size: 32669696 vsize: 0 resident: 32669696 share: 0 rss: 13840384 rss_rlim: 0
