Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libgconf2-4

This bug has already been submitted to upstream, but they won't react:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=505488

When  gconfd-2 is started it does not unblock signals properly. This becomes an
issue when the following two conditions are satisfied:

- The gconf library is used from a process which has previously blocked some
signals
- The process is responsible for launching the daemon for first time. 

If that happens gconfd-2 will not receive some signals which are supposed to be
delivered, such as SIGHUP, SIGTERM... 

Steps to reproduce:
1. kill any gconfd-2 process
2. use the library from a process which blocks signals like HUP, TERM
3. try to send SIGTERM or SIGHUP signals
