I am getting the same stack trace on OpenSolaris

http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=10770

It happens when logging out from a session for a new user who does not have anything on the desktop. The problem seems to be that the value returned for the key nautilus/desktop-metadata/directory/window_scroll_position is NULL and this causes the crash.
