Ok, sorry it took so long to get back. I followed the instructions on
the wiki and got nm-applet running from valgrind. The thing is, and
that's because it took me so long to get back, nm-applet never crashed
when run from valgrind.

I realized that, while running from valgrind, nm-applet run / responded
much slower than normal, which is normal according to the wiki.

So I decided to leave it running as long as possible, as I figured that
maybe since nm-applet was running slower, that maybe I wasn't allowing
it to run long enough to crash. So I left it running for more than 8
hours, without internet connection. It didn't crash even then. I stopped
it (CTRL+C), and now I'm attaching the valgrind.log for this 8 hours run
- who knows, even though it didn't crash, it might still be useful,
though I couldn't spot anything suspicious at a quick glance.

I tested nm-applet again without valgrind and internet connection
disabled, and sure enough, it crashed as usual after a couple of
minutes.

I'm not sure what to do next... maybe play with the command-line
switches on valgrind? Hope you guys have some idea on what else can be
done to trace this further.

Regards!
