Some time ago I moved to awesome WM from Gnome 2 and now, when I totally
rebuld the @world package set on my Gentoo (amd64) some of gnome apps
refused to run or they run with some of mistakes, I=92ll describe below. In
order of what the situation state was:

1) gconfd-2 uses 100% of CPU and eats more and more RAM until its value
reaches about 3,2 GiB =97 gconfd-2 eats slowly; gnome-screensaver runs as
usual, gnome-system-monitor cannot show dependency tree and store
preferences settings; gnome-terminal refused to run giving no output on
stdout or stderr; firefox shows

Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is a missing
or misconfigured D-Bus session bus daemon. See
http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1: GetIOR
failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: Failed to
execute program /usr/libexec/gconfd-2: Success)

but seem to run as usual; ~/.gconfd/saved_state size grows incredibly fast
reaching about 3 GiB in 5-10 minutes;

2) I managed to fix gconf-d resource eating by removing all in /tmp/*
~/.gconf/ ~/.gconfd folders; firefox shows the same error, gnome-terminal
exit immidiately with

GConf warning: failure listing pairs in `/apps/gnome-terminal/global':
Configuration server couldn't be contacted: CORBA error: IDL:
omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0GConf warning: failure listing pairs in

ERROR:terminal-app.c:1460:terminal_app_init: assertion failed:
(app->default_profile_id !=3D NULL)
Aborted

problems with gnome-system-monitor are still the same;

3) all the time I=92ve tried to run gconfd-2 I got the following error in
dmesg:

[98735.073526] gconfd-2[2518] general protection ip:7fea034565c0
sp:7fff60ada958 error:0 in libc-2.13.so[7fea03335000+181000]

but I=92ve also tried to recompile glibc-2.14.1-r2 instead of 2.13-r4 and
returned to the last stable version back (it required some portage magick,
but did well). No one else blames on glibc, so I decided to something
missing in gconf.

Now gconfd-2 does not start automatically, when application needs it, but
starts if calls with `gconftool-2 --spawn`.

System parameters of my system can be found here:

Thanks in advance.
