Based on comments on the upstream bug, and the previous comment here, it is really is beginning to look like a race condition. This could happen if the gnome-panel is "completely" drawn before it should be, i.e. things are still being loaded in which may be causing the corruption.
Is there a chance that we can have something in a ppa to test this and add something to the code like WAIT=10 seconds or something along those lines? A "perfect fix" would be to have the panel completely redrawn on update instead of just the icons (if that happens).
