The Problem:
When I click the main menu launcher in the gnome-panel, gnome-panel
segfaults, without launching. The panel disappears and is redrawn.
Only one user is affected by this, so it must be a munged configuration
file. I tried deleting a bunch of .gnome*, which didn't help and I
copied the same bunch from another user which did help some. But I
still have the freezing problem.
Could someone tell me what files I need to fix or replace?

OK, let me try something else. Does anybody know what list I should
post this on in order to put it in front of knowledgeable gnome-panel
people?
You might try checking Gnome's archives or posting a message on one of
the lists. The lists and archives are at http://lists.gnome.org
Another option is to delete the affected user and recreating him or her.
First, make note of the UID, GID and home directory of the user. Then
use:
userdel username
do NOT use the "-r" option (which would delete their home directory).
Then:
useradd -u old-user-ID -g old-group-ID -d old-directory username
That should recreate the gnome stuff for the user and retain their old
directory.
