[Bug 367473] [NEW] Segfault when trying to add a Windows printer via SAMBA

In Ubuntu 9.04, I'm trying to add a Windows printer via SAMBA. I click
Browse..., find the domain/workgroup, click the triangle to expand it,
then I click the triangle beside the Windows PC I want. The entire
"Printer configuration" and all related windows close completely, and
dmesg reports

I added a network printer just fine, but adding a Windows printer via
Samba fails. On other Ubuntu computers, rebooting would let me add the
Windows printer, but this computer consistently fails.
