I am seeing similar issues. Many operations (like starting the panel or
adding applets to it) take a very long time and I get a lot of the
errors from apps not able to communicate with the session manager, but I
don't ever see the polkit-gnome-authen crashing. On the other hand, I
have no such process running, but it may run and exit.

I do not have the problem with multiple workspaces. I can create or
delete them at will and it works fine.

One things that might be different is that I am NOT running xdm. I login
and run startx(1). My system is i386 and it is running all current gnome
ports and 8.0-stable of March 3.
