i have had the exact same problem, but this is not new to 1.0.3, it 
occurred in 1.0.2 as well as in 1.0 (i think). i'm not dead sure of 1.0 
but i am of 1.0.2. i am using debian unstable and 1.0.2 was ximian's 
woody deb's. 1.0.3 was compiled from source. i have three different 
logons, root, an id in the root group, and an normal user id. the 
problem only occurred in the second id. what's unique about it is that 
when you bring up the session properties for the second id nautilus' 
state is trash. for the other two id's it is respawn which is probably 
what it should be. if you change it the respawn and then log off and on 
again, it is back to trash but nautilus starts. whenever you 
logoff/logon when it is trash nautilus fails to start. i have no idea 
how this comes about, there is no difference between these three id's 
that i can see. the problem started when i switched to kde in the second 
id, so i suspected this had something to do with nautilus not starting. 
but when i did this for root the problem didn't occur. the third id 
never used kde. i am using wdm.
