There are none, I hacked fbpanel, works like a charm. I randomly added
this line:
gdk_window_set_override_redirect(p->topgwin->window, TRUE);
before the "gtk_widget_show_all(p->topgwin);"

And then I made sure that the dwm statusbar is always at least N pixels:

-       bh = dc.h = dc.font.height + 2;
+       bh = dc.h = MAX(dc.font.height + 2, barheight);

(set barheight to 24 oslt)

// pipe
