On my RedHat 6.0 boxes with my updated RPMs all my panel applets work
normally.

I'm guessing that the "base" 5.2 GNOME RPMs aren't exactly like the "base"
6.0 RPMs.  I made the updated RPMs using SPEC files and patches (updated
appropriately) from the stock RH 6.0 SRPMs.  Maybe there is some bad
interaction with mixing these RH 6.0 RPMs with the 5.2 ones.  Then again,
these updated RPMs have been download over 10,000 times and I haven't
heard of you problem before (in fact I've only heard of 3 problems (yours
is 4), 2 of them were resolved and not specific to my updated RPMs).

Try launching your panel applets from a terminal, are there any error
messages that are helpfull?  How about launching them with strace?
