"Icon Creep" in 4.8 Panel

I've got two or three icons that are gradually creeping to the left from their original position.  The longer this session goes on, the more they gradually move left.  Check out this screenshot:  http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/3391/iconcreep.png

Anyone else experiencing this?   Any suggestions?

Re: "Icon Creep" in 4.8 Panel

I'm getting the same exact problem after upgrading to Xfce 4.8 on my Arch Linux box. I have to remove and then re-add the Notification Area plugin from my panel in order to get the icons in their proper placement again. There's "nothing" in the blank space, so it's futile to try and rearrange the items in the panel.

If you see this problem and can easily reproduce it; I'd appreciate a bug at bugzilla.xfce.org with the output of "xfce4-panel -q && PANEL_DEBUG=systray xfce4-panel > ~/panel.log" which you can run inside a terminal.

Did anyone submit a bug report for this yet? If not, I can try to create one. The problem is, this isn't really "reproducible". It sort of just "happens" whenever. Sometimes logging out and then logging back in temporarily fixes this. Sometimes it doesn't.

Should be already fixed in git master. Still some issues I'd like to get resolved, but most likely a new panel release at the end of this week.
