[Bug 1397232] [NEW] unity-settings-deamon is continually crashing with SIGABRT because of a free on an invalid pointer

 

Public bug reported:

I'm seeing crashes every 24 seconds because of a free on an invalid
pointer.

Attached is a strace using: strace -v -s 8192 -p $(pidof unity-settings-
daemon)  -o strace.log

This is slowly driving me nuts.
