I don't see any problems with NM compiled from master using up-to-date F13.
kernel-2.6.34.7-61.fc13.x86_64

Doing rmmod e1000e produces:
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): carrier now OFF (device state 8, 
deferring action for 4 seconds)
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): device state change: 8 -> 9 (reason 5)
NetworkManager[17573]: <warn> Activation (eth0) failed.
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): device state change: 9 -> 3 (reason 0)
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): deactivating device (reason: 0).
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): canceled DHCP transaction, DHCP client 
pid 17847
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> Updating /etc/hosts with new system hostname
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): now unmanaged
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): device state change: 3 -> 1 (reason 36)
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): cleaning up...

modprobe e1000e does:
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): carrier is OFF
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): new Ethernet device (driver: 'e1000e' 
ifindex: 8)
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): exported as 
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/3
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): now managed
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): device state change: 1 -> 2 (reason 2)
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): bringing up device.
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): preparing device.
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): deactivating device (reason: 2).
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): carrier now ON (device state 2)
NetworkManager[17573]: <info> (eth0): device state change: 2 -> 3 (reason 40)
...

Could you install debug packages and run NetworkManager from within gdb to 
obtain better backtrace?

# gdb NetworkManager
(gdb) run --no-daemon

and when it crashes do
(gdb) t a a bt
