It looks like you tried to send it as an e-mail attachment but launchpad
didn't pick it up - could you try submitting it via the web interface,

This appears to be the same as above. Apport reported the crash as soon as Gnome came up (following a reboot).

Followup report: I am not a programmer, but I ran valgrind on powertweakd (report attached) and found it interesting that several CRC checks failed. I hope this will help.
