Title:
  Gnome terminal gets resized when a11y is enabled and using Qt apps

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When using some Qt apps, for example Kile, unity-panel-service seems
  to crash when some actions are performed. I noticed this since my
  gnome terminal was getting resized over and over, making it smaller
  and smaller.

  I'm running precise with unity 3d, with all the updates installed. You
  can see a video of what's happening at:

  When I press ALT+right or ALT+left to change tabs in Kile, the
  terminal gets resized and the indicators get restarted. After from
  help from Seb, we manged to get this trace from a gdb run:

  Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

  (gdb)

  After that, I disabled a11y and restarted the session, and I could no
  longer reproduce the issue.
