Public bug reported:

The affected package could also be the command-not-found package.

There seems to be a bug with the way either gnome-terminal or command-
not-found handles unknown commands that are forked. It also seems to be
dependent on the length of the full path.

My testcase (which may have to be fiddled with):
~$ mkdir 123456789012345678
~$ cd 123456789012345678
~/123456789012345678$ pwd
/home/redbrick/123456789012345678
~/123456789012345678$ a&
* gnome-terminal crashes *

I've reproduced this on three different machines.
