I believe this crash happened as the spread was not being shut down
cleanly. During logout, shell would hang around when the X server would
shut down, making the display variable null, and hence causing
XPending() to crash.

This issue has been fixed, shell shuts down properly when asked to by
gnome-session. Therefore I'll mark this bug as fix released.

Thanks for the update kriekse, and vibhavp for persuing it.
