I did not attempt to provide a backtrace since that would require
downgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 (which would probably require a reinstall and
possibly reformatting my disk), building debugging packages for gnome-
terminal 6.06, and then re-running the upgrade process.  That would take
all day, or maybe multiple days, and I don't have that kind of free time
to have one of my two primary machines out of commission.

If you read the bug report that I submitted to Gnome, and linked from
this bug report, you will see that I gave them on Jan 16th exactly the
same explanation for why I wasn't going to be able to obtain a
backtrace.

In this context, Sebastian Bacher's request on Jan 29th for me to obtain
a backtrace seemed so ridiculous to me that I honestly thought it was
generated by a robot, and nobody had actually read the details of my bug
report. So I ignored it, waiting for a real person.
