Hi, me again. 

My Gnome2 build on top of Gnome1 crashes at startup. Here is what I
read through a stack of error windows from top to bottom:

Can't Display Location
"/" is not a valid location. Please check the spelling and try
again.

Can't Display Location
"/home/piero" is not a valid location. Please check the spelling and
try again.

Can't Display Location
"/home/piero/.gnome-desktop" is not a valid location. Please check
the spelling and try again.

Error
Application "gnome-panel" (process 603) has crashed due to a fatal
error. (Segmentation fault)

After accepting the last note it enters a dead loop, Gnome tries to
run the panel and it crashes again coming back to the note with a
new PID. However Opera browser that was saved in the session hangs
up meanwhile, though the gnome-terminal doesn't. I am pretty
suspicious now these crashes are coming from errors in saving
sessions while you leave Gnome.

I has portupgraded -f gnome-panel and libpanel, no luck. Also tried
to take Gnome off at a plain account without any possibly broken
configuration, just .xinitrc and .xservers, neither it helped (just
the final panel loop doesn't start - plain screen instead) - so it
looks like generic issue to me.
