Ok. I just tested this dbus - e thing, adding modules one after another 
on a new account, with new config. After loading a new module from 
EXTRA, I kill dbus-launch and dbus-daemon and then I restart e, and then 
I exit e using System -> Logout. Result: no segvs, except for one with 
module places that occured only once, and that I couldn't reproduce any 
time after that first time (sorry, no bt :-( ). Not even itask-ng 
triggered any segvs.

That error popup that "dbus is not present" actually comes from the 
notification module.

But all of the above are with a new config. And I think the segv's I saw 
earlier may have been because

  1. I have an old config in the main account. However, it seems 
unlikely that a config may trigger a segv.

  2. I had used some opengl game a week ago on that login (I tend to 
remain logged in for weeks at a time). Whereas, this time, I had 
restarted the X server (sort of forced to restart for some other reason) 
and done all these tests on the restarted X server. Which means the bug 
may be in the nvidia drivers themselves.

In essence, no bug in e. Kudos to e-devs :D
