I also run into this annoying bug. In my case, I can not comment out my manual entries in /etc/network/interfaces because I need those for proper NAT support in VirtualBox (vbox0 interface bridging).

The only way to bring the applet back to life I've found is:

/etc/init.d/Network-Manager restart

Hopefully a proper fix for this can be found and pushed through update-manager...
