In our default session in Ubuntu, stdout and stderr are a pipe to gdm, which
buffers the data over to .xsession-errors.  In this case, gdm had likely
closed the pipe as the session was over, but this applet was still running
and tried to write to it.

Definitely a case of an error condition which could be handled more
gracefully, rather than a functional bug.
