Thanks for the bug report. Without a stack trace from the crash it's
very hard to determine what caused the crash. Please see
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/getting-traces.cgi for more information
about getting a useful stack trace.  It would also be helpful to know
which version of the gnome-panel (and/or which distribution of linux)
you are using.

Comment 3 Elijah Newren 2003-03-18 23:17:28 UTC 
Appears to be a unique stack trace, according to the
simple-dup-finder.  Setting version->2.2.x, marking priority->high
(it's a crasher), changing GNOMEVER2.0->GNOMEVER2.2, adding bugsquad
keyword, and reopening.
Comment 4 Arvind S N 2003-03-19 17:00:05 UTC 
Thanks guys for tracking this guys!

2003-03-19  Arvind Samptur <arvind.samptur@wipro.com>

       Don't forget, FOOBAR_WIDGET still exists for 2.2. :/

       * panel.c: (remove_panel_accept) (panel_delete_without_query) :
        Get the casting right when deleting the menu panel.
        Fixes #108603
