I am seeing the same problem on sid/powerpc, and I have not been able to
diagnose it.  It started on Friday (2003-09-26) after upgrading for the
first time in about a week.  Several dozen packages were upgraded,
including glibc.

When I log in, gnome-panel hangs, taking up all of the CPU along with
gnome-settings-daemon.  There are no errors in .xsession-errors.

I tried downgrading a handful of likely packages, including gnome-panel
and gnome-control-center.  I also tried logging in as a newly-created
user.  Neither of these solved the problem.

When I have time, I can try downgrading libc6 and other packages.  Are
there anything else I should look at?
