Someone in #xfce on IRC (I forgot who) reported that the systray
icon no longer showed up in 0.8.4, and now that I've finally
found time to upgrade here, I can duplicate it.  Fulld debug info
doesn't appear to have anything useful, but here it is just in case:

*****
Update... (yes, I pasted all this and then messed with it some more).
*****

After messing with the "when to show an icon" settings some more, 
the icon has magically appeared.  Note that it was *already* supposed
to "Always Show Icon" -- all I did was select the other options one
by one, eventually re-selecting "Always Show Icon" before closing
the settings dialog.  Here's what scrolled through the debug output
while I did all this:

Oddly enough, killing xfpm and restarting it results in the same
problem.  Perhaps related to this commit?
