In addition to this possibly related bug report: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input-wacom/+bug/782756 a couple of forum members have reported what sounds like the same bug. A Cintiq: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1062625&page=5 and a Bamboo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10819283&postcount=751

Interestingly the Cintiq user has now moved on to Debian testing (Wheezy) and even after updating to xf86-input-wacom-0.11.0 no longer sees the segmentation fault with his touch strips or pad buttons as he did in Natty. Neither did he see it in Maverick. So this does not appear to be a xf86-input-wacom bug. Or at least not solely.

I do not encounter this issue with my Bamboo Pen and Touch tablet. BambooPT's export touch as a separate kernel device and the pad is a dependent of touch not the stylus as it is for other tablets.
