1126 informative for the developer.
1130 - ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/bug-buddy/
1134 - automatic stack trace gathering, either from a core file
1135 or from a crashed application. No messing with gdb :)
1137 - determines the versions of different components installed
1140 - can be started from gmc (double clicking on a core file)
1141 and from the crash dialog, if you have gnome-libs 1.0.53
1142 (October GNOME) or higher installed
1146 - libglade: 0.5 or later required (CVS version has some layout
1149 - gdb is required to obtain a stack trace automatically
1151 - gnome-libs 1.0.53 or higher recommended
1155 - yes, some information about your system will be submitted
1156 to the bug tracking system. This is limited to versions of
1157 system and gnome components, but I figure I should mention it.
