Public bug reported:

libhildonwm/hd-wm.c is sending an invalid message when attempting to
notify the system of a new application starting.  This code path is only
executed when attempting to start a service (i.e. when attempting to
start a hildonized application that has set the 'X-Osso-Service' entry
in the application's desktop file.

Any software component that is using the libstartup-notification library
to listen for these startup messages will trip on a libstartup-
notification bug that causes the process to segfault.  To see this
happen on a ubuntu-mobile build, edit the mousepad desktop entry and
add:

"X-Osso-Service=org.moblin.mousepad"

... then start the mousepad application, and then attempt to start the
app a second time using the drop down menu in the upper lefthand corner
of the Marquee.  Since matchbox-window-manager is using libstartup-
notification, then the window manager crashes and odd behavior starts to
happen as the system continues to limp along without a window manager.
