Hmmm.  I'm thinking maybe I have some old cruft lying around here
that's badly in need of updating that I've overlooked.  I just came
across one of them when I tried to update xfce4-settings.  My libexo
was still at 0.6.2.  Updating right now.

Hopefully, I'll iron this problem out.  It did seem odd to me that that
fix (with union sigval) still resulted in a crashing clock applet.

I'll work on it and report back later.  Thanks!
