Bug Description

Description of the problem:
I turned on assistive technologies so that GNOME would speak various things to me. After doing some testing I turned it off and logged out and back in again. Upon logging back in I received notice that nautilus was having bobobo issues and shortly after the report bug tool appeared.

Steps to reproduce (unknown if these actually work):
1. Turn on assistive technologies in GNOME preferences (I can be more detailed because I currently don't have a panel).
2. Log out and back in so it is turned on.
3. Start gedit on a text file. Highlight somethings and focus and defocus gedit.
4. Turn assistive technologies off and Log out.
5. Log back in again.

Expected results:
Normal GNOME desktop.

Actual results:
Nautilus pops up a box saying that it has issues talking to bonobo. Panel fails to start and crash report appears. Computer says something that sounds a like "Enable echo alert? Enter y or n colon" every 20 seconds forever.

Hmm I've been utterly unable to reproduce the segfault (reproducing the irritating speech issue is easy though). I'm half regretting filing of this bug because I thought there would at least be a stack trace in that crash report but that does not appear to be the case...

Let's reject this for lack of decent information. I'll reopen it if it happens again.
