After Gnome crashed a few times, I would delete the ~/.gnome-whatever directories in order to get the desktop back into a usable state (but losing all my customizations). Things got better in the next month or two, after half the RPMs in the system had been updated, but by then I had become hesitant to tweak anything on the desktop for fear of triggering a crash. Eventually, I dumped the Gnome desktop setup and started using WindowMaker. IMHO, releasing a crash-prone panel or gdm would be incredibly lame. Hopefully it gets fixed before the release of Gnome 2.
