** Description changed:

  On a Precise i386 system with ubuntu-desktop 1.245, gnome-session-
  fallback 3.2.1-0ubuntu1, and gnome-panel 1:3.2.0-0ubuntu1, I had
  installed gnome-session-fallback (which installed gnome-panel as a
  dependency) while in a Unity 2D session, and then I had logged out and
  logged in to a "GNOME Classic" session, and then I had logged out again
  and logged in to a "GNOME Classic (no effects)" session. Since this is a
  VMware Workstation 8.0.0 build-741780 virtual machine with no graphics
  acceleration, I wonder if perhaps the latter two sessions were
  equivalent. In any case, while there had been no crash prior to entering
  the "GNOME Classic (no effects)" session, shortly after the start of
  that session I was informed by Apport that gnome-panel had crashed with
  SIGABRT in __kernel_vsyscall(). The stack trace has no more symbols and
  doesn't look very good, but perhaps the Apport retracing service will be
  able to make something of it.
+ 
+ I did not see any other incorrect or undesirable behaviour from gnome-
+ panel; the panel seemed to work fine, and did not even visibly flicker
+ momentarily.
  
  This might be the same as invalid bug 876799 (which occurred under
  somewhat similar circumstances and could not be effectively retraced),
  and/or as any one of a few valid bugs: bug 759451, bug 850113, or bug
  507062. Hopefully a retracing will provide the necessary information to
  tell.
