I'm pretty sure this issue is related to having an invalid keyboard layout
state. I haven't seen this issue in a while, but I have a separate one about
the keyboard layout indicator applet -- the whole X keyboard layout system
gets confused sometimes when I plug in an external (Apple USB) keyboard...
to the point that my laptop keyboard types Dvorak (as usual) and the
external keyboard types QWERTY! ... no wonder things start crashing.
