**SOLUTION**   **SOLUTION**   **SOLUTION**

I have found the solution! (at least for me)...

Load up the CompizConfig Settings Manager, and under the section of
options marked "Utility", DISABLE "Regex Matching". I have gotten to a
stage where I could reproduce the crashing of emerald at will (by alt-
tabbing between two open gnome terminals), but when I disabled regex
matching, all the problems went away and I couldn't get it to crash
anylonger.

I'm not sure how important regex matching is. I hear it's used for a few
other plugins, but I haven't seen anything major as a result of
disabling it. So there you go. :)
