discussion in #ubuntu-devel regarding the crash to look for:

16:08 < charles> bdmurray: it would show up as 
                 dereferencing a NULL pointer, the 
                 self->priv field
16:08 < bdmurray> charles: would the crash be filed about 
                  some other package though?
16:08 < charles> bdmurray, likely candidates for where 
                 this would happen would be
16:09 < charles> app-indicator.c, bus_creation(), NULL 
                 dereference on app->priv->connection
16:10 < charles> and much less likely, in 
                 app-indicator.c, theme_changed_cb(), in 
                 "if (priv->dbus_registration != 0)"
16:10 < charles> wrt showing up in a different package... 
                 hmm
16:13 < charles> bdmurray, I guess it's possible. If so, 
                 the stacktrace would show the levels 
                 app_indicator_init() -> bus_creation() 
                 -> crash
16:13 < charles> bdmurray: if you're trying to eliminate 
                 candidate tickets -- if those aren't in 
                 the stacktrace, it's not #1122596
16:14 < charles> bdmurray: is this helpful? I'm not sure 
                 that I'm answering the right question :-)
