My cut&paste didn't work.  There was more in the console message:

Comment 5 Havoc Pennington 2006-02-25 17:01:48 UTC 
I upgraded to rawhide and it crashed on startup when I logged in after rebooting. 
This is with:

[hp@localhost ~]$ rpm -q gnome-utils
gnome-utils-2.13.92-4
[hp@localhost ~]$ rpm -q gnome-panel
gnome-panel-2.13.91-3
Comment 6 Matthias Clasen 2006-08-04 04:28:36 UTC 
hmm, works fine here
