Mark, is this bug 81304?
Luis: this is not related to 81304 ... I can't reproduce it, so it may have been a transient problem with the snapshots. We haven't seen any reports of this. Marking as NEEDINFO. Konstantin, if you can reproduce this with the latest snapshots, could you REOPEN with an up to date stacktrace ?

Lots more dups, still. Reopening and marking 2.0.0.
Added gnome_bugs@sun.com and gnome-bugs@wipro.com in CC list.
From looking at bug 83631 it could be some GC refcounting messup. Since gtk caches gc's this can be some messup all over the place.

eek ... should be fixed now by ... g_object_set_data_full (G_OBJECT (menuitem), "Panel:Image", g_object_ref (G_OBJECT (pixmap)), - (GDestroyNotify) g_free); + (GDestroyNotify) g_object_unref); :/
This bug was marked RESOLVED without a resolution, which Bugzilla does not allow (and so I am fixing it). It is assumed that the bug was intended to be marked as FIXED. If the bug should have some other resolution, please change its resolution.
