The Gnome folks are marching on to gnome2. Anyway, the crashes occur, in many cases, when a number of calls get made (gnome startup, control-center, yada, yada). Rolling back to control-center 1.4, it doesn't use bonobo-moniker-archiver, just plain flat files for config data, so that aspect goes away, although some other gnome programs still use it, I believe.

What I did to change it is use the kde control center, then a kcmartsrc file is created with those settings.
