Summary:                    xfce4-panel causes computer lockup
Description: 
After running xfce4-panel for a little while (seems to vary), it begins to
eat up clock cycles until I have seen it consuming 98% of the CPU and then
today it finally caused my computer to crash.  I can't kill -9 the process
or find any way of ending it without rebooting the entire machine.  This
happens nearly every time I'm in xfce for longer than a few minutes.
