Hello Daniel, thanks for your report, but there's something to adjust in it...

(I've inferred it, since it's not clearly stated.) In any case, please try to run gkrellm with the --debug option, selecting the relevant values (gkrellm -h will show the ones to use) and report the output? Also, trying with the new version in sid (soon there will be also the fresh new upstream release there) would help. > 4) On login to XFCE4, the xfce4-panel aborts with an error > (something like Bad Drawable, 0 pixels) can you be more generic...? no, really, without precise description and logs, how can we debug the problem? > 5) The gkrellm monitor was set to not display in the window task list (i.e. > currently open windows). > > This is a breakage of unrelated software and thus critical severity. no, those are simply a bug in xfce4-panel and a bug in gkrellm: xfce4-panel should not crash if an autostarted app crashed (clone & retitle) and gkrellm should not crash. That said, severity is downgraded. > If this is not reproducible on a Lenny amd64 system with XFCE, it may be that can you please test it? > some backports package is partially at fault, however, this looks to me like > something is happening in GKrellM that should never happend AND it's the > occurence isn't defended against by xfce4-panel. (or maybe GTK). it's xfce4-panel (if there's a bug in it) that should protect itself.
