Btw, from the syslog output, there are some calls into glib routines,
which lends weight to it being a gnome component failing, however a lot
of the debug symbols appear to be missing.  The call prior to the crash
looks like an invalid pointer loose somewhere:

Nov  2 17:42:56 htpc gdm[2565]: #3  <signal handler called>
Nov  2 17:42:56 htpc gdm[2565]: #4  0x00007fade9b1cdba in strchr () from /lib/libc.so.6

I think that's as deep as we can go with the information provided so
far.  What would really help would be to have a full backtrace - see
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing for guidance.  Although, I'm not
100% sure it is X that is crashing, since X does not use glib... so
first I would suggest identifying exactly what is crashing, and then get
a backtrace of that, and then refile this bug against that component so
it can be further investigated.
