Based on Timo Aaltonen's theory, I changed the Gnome screensaver via
`gnome-screensaver-preferences' to use "Blank screen" instead of my
usual "Random".  In 48 hours, I would typically expect my machine to
crash 1-3 times.  For the next 48 hours, it did not crash.   After that
48 hours, I started `gnome-screensaver-preferences' again and I ran each
screensaver in the small viewing window of the application for 5-10
seconds.  When I reached "Picture folder", my X session crashed.

Editing the bug title to be more appropriately descriptive.
