Yes! Fixing this will be very good for GNOME, and greatly reduce the cost 
of some our daemons.

Well, the other thing that the gnome_program_init provides (as I 
understand it) is the bug-buddy hooks. However, IMHO, this is more of a 
distro thing. Ubuntu's solution 
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomatedProblemReports) seems to be better here, 
as distro specific stuff can make great efforts to get symbols, etc.
