Information about the crash has been successfully collected. However we are working on GNOME debug server to handle correctly this information.". If it writes why it crashed, I have yet to find it. Also, Bug Buddy used to go ahead and let me submit the bug but now it just closes and goes away.

Bug-buddy is being switched from sending gdb-generated stack traces
(which are most often useless due to missing debuginfo) to sending
minidumps that can be used to generate useful stacktraces serverside.

The server side of this is currently in the testing phase, and not quite
ready yet. 

If you install the necessary debuginfo packages, bug-buddy will give you
the traditional gdm-generated stack trace and offer you to send it to
bugzilla, I believe.
