F10 + Xfce: since yum update, File Manager (Thunar) freezes system....

Hi,

I'm using up-to-date version of Fedora 10.

Ever since I have updated around April 19th or so, Thunar
(the file manager of Xfce) grinds the system to a stand still.
Nothing works anymore (even remote login in impossible)
and I have to power down/up to reboot.

This happens on two very different PCs of mine, so I'm
sure this is software related.
Since I did not notice this behaviour before, I tend to
believe that it has to do with a recent update.

This is very bad. I wouldn't mind if Thunar itself crashes,
but bringing the whole OS down is too dramatic and
I suspect some underlying library support to be the culprit.

Anybody else sees this?
Any idea what is the reason for this?

Thanks,
Rob.
