Had this exact problem--is disruptive in a classroom for sure. Details
on alkisg solution in #8 above:

He says:
...Create /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/local/bin/gnome-panel, with the following contents:...

Another way to say this would be:
1.   ...Create /usr/local/bin/gnome-panel, with the following contents:...
2.   ...Re-build the image

(then this script just created will be in the image at
/opt/ltsp/i386...)

At least this is my understanding! Thanks alkisg and vagrantc!

Title:
  Gnome fallback - intermittent menus on top panel

Status in gnome-panel package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 12.04.1, up-to-date.

  Using gnome fallback session on fat clients via ltsp, sometimes a user
  is presented with an empty top panel (no Applications menu, no Places
  menu, no indicators). The panel is there but no menus. This happens
  perhaps 1 in 20 logins and across various users and various machines.
  Workaround is a desktop launcher (named FixMyMenu) that the user can
  run that calls the following script:

  #!/bin/sh
  killall gnome-panel
  gnome-panel

  This works in the vast majority of cases, though occasionally needs to
  be run more than once before the menus appear on the panel.
