I'm experiencing this too. 

Scenario 1:
- right-click clock, choose properties.
- Set Clock Options > format to predefined 12-hour format.
- Click close.
- Bug: clock disappears. 

Scenario 2:
- right-click clock, choose properties.
- Set Clock Options > format to predefined 12-hour format.
- Set Clock Options > format to "Custom"
- Click close.
- Bug: clock disappears. 

Fix:
- right-click clock, choose properties.
- Set Clock Options > format to predefined 12-hour format.
- Set Clock Options > format to "Custom"
- Click once in the custom-format box. 
- Click close.
- Bug: clock does not disappear.

I can confirm the bug is present on Debian 9.4 amd64 also (xfce4-panel 4.12.1).

Compiled current version from git, ran from /usr/local with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} set -- problem no longer present.

Version 4.13.3, which has the fix for Bug #11527 is in Debian experimental. Debian Unstable only has 4.12.5, so as a user I don't expect a packaged version with the fix in any downstream distros for a while unless someone backports the relevant patches.

I tried, but there's GTK3 stuff involved that I don't yet know how to write GTK+2 equivalents for.

I confirm the bug for Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS with XFCE 4.12.

This is a duplicate of an issue that is already fixed (as mulenmar correctly pointed out).
