CVS is now updated and xfsamba compiles. The implications of -p 1 is
that you have a reduced set of icons. Those that require writing to
pixmaps on the server are not created (since your Xserver does not seem
to allow it). Also, the icons will not be scaled to the size of the
selected font, but remain in the same size always. 
For the panel to use -p 1, just modify the definition of the run command
to include -p 1 as arguments. I suppose with other applications would be
the same.

3.8.18 is around the corner, so we really should get the fixes in
quickly today.
