Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
I use ssh to redirect my display to my local machine, and run old motif
applications from the remote systems on my dapper x server.  However,
after some amount of time, wnck-applet starts consuming 99% of my cpu,
and I need to kill it.  After it's killed, a dialog pops up saying:
'"Window List" has quit unexpectedly'.  I choose reload, and it works
fine for a while, but then it happens again, up to three or four times a
day.
