Mike's description of his problem suggests that he was using fbpanel. 
He refers to an icon at the top middle of the screen, not the 
xwin-xdg-icon in the notification area.  Your description is different, 
and at least one of your error messages (gedit 8876 
child_info_fork::abort:...) sounds like a rebase issue.
