This could be a gtk+ problem... I've started noticing that on occassion gtt
or other gtk+ apps I have running will exhibit the same behaviour (not
quiting when I logout of X and then log back in later.  And Maxing out the CPU
when that happens)  This may have been happening for a while and I just wasn't
noticing because I only started logging out/logging in with frequency when I
started playing with the panel.
