ths is fixed in CVS as well:

Thu Mar  1 05:21:04 2001  Tim Janik  <timj gtk org>

        * gwmdesktop.c (thumb_queue_step): don't do thumbnail shooting on
        iconified or shaded windows.

        * gwmh.h (struct _GwmhTask): made width/height/x/y 32bit ints,
        to avoid crashes with excessive window sizes.

        * gwmdesktop.c (task_remove_thumb): fixed thumb_queue cleanup
        code (a bug that could cause segfaults after thumbnailing was
        turned back on).

        * gwmthumbnail.c (gwm_thumb_nail_destroy): pass the thumbnail in the
        destroy function.

that'd be nice, unfortunately i don't have the time to do bugzilla cleanups
for gnome-core. so if someone volounteers to sort reproducable desk-guide
bugs out that still apply to HEAD and send me a report, i'll hunt those
down.
