Bugs with new core/libs

["Spud" <spud got sucked into a blackhole org>]

    I tested out the new core/libs, and found some problems that have been
around since gnome-libs 1.0.10. I have filed a bug report (#1612) but i'll
let people here know as well. First off, GMC (4.5.37) won't work right. I
can run GMC, but i dont get any icons, or error messages...i dont even know
where to begin to track this down. The main bug I've found is that the panel
crashes when I try to change the icon of a launcher. Here is the output of
gdb.
