The problems you're describing sound like the result of having dotfiles
which set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to a value which doesn't contain
/usr/athena/lib.  (Starting with Monday's patch release, a front-end
script to gnome-panel will detect this case and display a dialog box.) 
If you correct this problem, you should start getting more reasonable
behavior.

If you want to reset your panel configuration after correcting this
problem (so that you can get the Athena defaults), you can do so with:

  gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel

followed by logging out and logging back in.
