I just had this happen to me a minute ago, gnome-vfs-daemon dumped core 
and my desktop icons etc disappeared. I logged out and logged back in to 
Gnome. Not a great solution, but still better than a reboot. You get to 
keep your uptime (and not have any loss of services if you're running 
any!) :-)
