I found this bug issue searching the web. I notified a similar bug (#578701) on May 11th 2010: my the bug vanished on June 1st, and it reappeared again just yesterday.
The symptom: clock applet freezes at bootstrap and it stays frozen forever. If I run "sudo kill -HUP `pidof gnome-panel`" the whole gnome- panel starts up again, and the clock applet starts working fine. I can't provide You crash informations, because I have no crash here. So I don't know what to attach here. Please, any hint?
