I did this, and I still have a consistent hang on exit.  It matches the
one described in bug 105715:

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105715

And I get the same result attaching strace to evolution-wombat as the
last comment mentions.  Looks like evolution-wombat is waiting for some
futex; might be nptl related, I don't know.

It always hangs on exit, but that's the only time I'm getting a crash.
