I just experienced this same bug.  I am not getting any crash report,
however, and I am unable to attach to the gnome-panel process with gdb.
This bug needs to be re-opened, however so far I have been unable to
determine how to get any debugging information.  Hopefully it can be
reproduced by another developer.

gnome-panel 1:2.21.92-0ubuntu2
gnome-applets 2.21.92-0ubuntu2

Steps to reproduce:

Click on Clock applet
Click on Edit button next to Locations (no locations currently added)
Click Add button
Click Find button
Select Europe/UK/Midlands/Birmingham
Click OK
Gnome-panel crash

This does not occur if I add London or any other location I have tried
so far (not all of them, obviously).  I believe it is the same as bug
199756.

I tried to find the source the applet pulls the list of locations from,
since I would imagine the bug is related to the data for these specific
locations, however I could not figure out what it was using.

Sebastien, you need to stop closing bug reports just because people do
not have a crash file!  It's still a bug, and of course we need more
debugging information, but it should be added to an existing bug report.
There's no reason to kludge up the system with multiple reports on the
same issue.  If you can give me any advice for getting a backtrace from
gnome-panel I would certainly be willing to do so, but I imagine you can
also reproduce this bug yourself.
