nope, there's just a single nautilus process and its parent is
gnome-session (output below).

as a note, i've seen this on 2 laptops.  in the first the problem
started over the course of upgrading.  the other (its replacement) was a
fresh debian install last week with a clean ~/.gconf and ~/.gnome2.  the
issue appeared immediately.

thanks again!
