Bug#466985: gnome-settings-daemon crashes (and the volume control applet too)

[No Name]

Hello,

while trying to produce debug packages for gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
the process ends with the following error:

I ran the following commands leading to this error:
apt-get build-dep gstreamer0.10-plugins-base

and 

DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip,noopt fakeroot apt-get -b source
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base

my CPU is as follows (just one of the cores is listed, it's a dual core
xeon):

Thanks again for the help,
