OK, I think I know why this is happening, though I can't reproduce
myself.  I have uploaded gnome-settings-daemon 3.4.2-0ubuntu12 to
quantal-proposed.  I'd really appreciate testing by those that get this
crash.  I'm confident, but not certain I've got the right fix.

[Gory details if you happen to know the code] The idletime signals are
firing after the power manager is stopped.  idletime is a singleton that
hands out references to itself every time it is 'created'.  And stop()
is expecting a mere unref() to disconnect the signals.  But it doesn't
if idletime has been reffed more times.  So this patch manually
disconnect the signals we set up.
