gnome-panel hang

[Andy Baumhauer]

I just confirmed that enabling ESD, logging out, and logging back in 
hangs gnome-panel, and killing esd from a vty restores gnome-panel.

I received pop-up messages that said:
    The panel encountered a problem while loading 
"OAFIID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet".
    The panel encountered a problem while loading 
"OAFIID:GNOME_SystemTrayApplet".
    The panel encountered a problem while loading 
"OAFIID:GNOME_ClockApplet".
    The panel encountered a problem while loading 
"OAFIID:GNOME_MixerApplet".
    ... Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?

I'm going to open a bug against this.
