OK that's too bad. Let's start working on a good upstream bug report then. First step is to try with a more recent version of mesa (and ATI) and see if this helps.

Please activate the xorg-edgers PPA: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa

Basically what do need to do is:
1. add these lines to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

2. run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
3. reboot and then try your repro with the shift switcher once again.

PS. If you still have the "proposed updates" checkbox ticked just uncheck it.

If you can repro your crash with xorg-edgers, then please ssh into the box right after it crashed and then run:
apport-collect 336320
(this command will upload all the necessary details to the bug such as hw / sw config data etc and also dmesg and xorg.log with stack and so on)
