I tried to run it through gdb to see where it actually happened but I wasn't
able to find it. But at least I don't have to drag my panel around every
time I start it anymore :-)

If that could help hinting to a bug, I remember that in the beginning, the
panel got its right size, then suddenly it started too small and got resized
when certain applets were started (can't remember which ones, probably the
biggest), and then a few weeks later I had to drag it around too make it
right.
