Upon doing startxfce4 the panel crashes and dumps core. I am using version 4.0.6. OS is OpenBSD 3.6 I'm using gtk+-2.4.13, pango-1.4.1, glib-2.4.7, libxml2-2.6.15, expat-1.95.8 This is what gdb says: Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault. ... #0 item_write_config (item=0x0, node=0x3c051780) at item.c:354 354 if (item->type == MENUITEM) #0 item_write_config (item=0x0, node=0x3c051780) at item.c:354 #1 0x1c00998b in panel_item_write_config (control=0x3c03d5c0, root=0x3c051780) at item.c:582 #2 0x1c00719b in control_write_config (control=0x3c03d5c0, node=0x3c051780) at controls.c:570 #3 0x1c0072db in control_write_xml (control=0x3c03d5c0, parent=0x3c051740) at controls.c:627 #4 0x1c0081a0 in groups_write_xml (root=0x3c01f940) at groups.c:338 #5 0x1c00ea91 in write_panel_config () at settings.c:222 #6 0x1c00b724 in save_panel () at main.c:85 #7 0x1c00b7a7 in quit (force=1) at main.c:123 #8 0x1c008c36 in _get_themed_pixbuf (name=<incomplete type>, theme=<incomplete type>) at icons.c:235 #9 0x1c008c5f in get_themed_pixbuf (name=<incomplete type>) at icons.c:246 #10 0x1c008943 in get_pixbuf_by_id (id=0) at icons.c:100 #11 0x1c009571 in item_apply_config (item=0x3c051080) at item.c:417 #12 0x1c0098a2 in panel_item_new () at item.c:536 #13 0x1c0099c8 in create_panel_item (control=0x3c03d5c0) at item.c:597 #14 0x1c006f97 in create_launcher (control=0x3c03d5c0) at controls.c:459 #15 0x1c006fc9 in create_control (control=0x3c03d5c0, id=-2, filename=0x0) at controls.c:474 #16 0x1c00722a in control_set_from_xml (control=0x3c03d5c0, node=0x3c01ff00) at controls.c:600 #17 0x1c0080d9 in groups_set_from_xml (node=0x3c01fe40) at groups.c:301 #18 0x1c00e990 in get_panel_config () at settings.c:165 #19 0x1c00cedc in create_panel () at panel.c:944 #20 0x1c00ba81 in main (argc=1, argv=0xcfbfc5e0) at main.c:288

Right, the panel is crashing in quit(), which is called because it couldn't find any icons. While this is indeed a bug, it also seems to indicate that there is a problem with your install. This bug is no longer present in 4.2, so I'll probably close it as WONTFIX.
This particular bug is not longer in 4.2, and can only happen when the icons are not installed or in the wrong location.
