(The fish is a shared library applet, so it would indeed kill the panel.)

If
	nm /usr/lib/libwrap.a /usr/local/lib/libwrap.a | grep 'T setenv'

shows a 'T setenv' line, then you need to update your TCP wrappers package
and rebuild ORBit, or update ORBit so it will detect this broken version
of TCP wrappers.

It would be helpful to know exactly what versions of everything you are
trying to build & use...
