Thanks.
A crash inside free() like that where the calling logic appears to be
correct, is most likely due to heap corruption that occurred earlier
(not visible in the stack traces).
To find the source of the corruption you will need to add these to your
/etc/environment first:
G_SLICE=always-malloc
MALLOC_CHECK_=3
Then reproduce the crash and upload a new crash file using 'ubuntu-bug'.
It should/may crash slightly earlier now, in a different place which is
the root cause of the problem.
** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu)
