Panel applet sigsegvs (long)

[Lars Torben Wilson <torben coastnet com>]

I and others have been having problems getting panel applets to load
for some time now (since 0.25, in my case). I don't know if this will
help the coders figure out what's going on, but I got this today with
xxgdb and cpuload_applet from a cvs taken this afternoon. It doesn't
seem too informative, but I could try later with watches on if that'll
help (I have to go somewhere now).
