Nasty clock bug [WAS: Re: [xfce4] Bug in resize]

Such a long sentence explaining that a bug should not be seen as a bug
;-) But that's a bug...

A fixed bug so... ;-)

Get and install gnubbuble theme from
http://themes.freshmeat.net/projects/gnububble/?topic_id=952%2C958

or "gnu aqua" from
http://themes.freshmeat.net/projects/gnuaquase/?topic_id=930%2C958

When you use one of these themes, the panel crashes. If you remove the
clock, the panel works.

BTW, please try w/out border. It makes the code simpler and looks really
nice.

Cheers,
