Changing the theme just helped me out for a moment as the bug reappeared
after a reboot/restart.

Additionally I tried to apply an automated restore of the genome panel defaults with an script, based on BitHacker's tool (se: http://bithacker.blogspot.com/2010/05/restore-default-gnome-panels-in-ubuntu.html).
Here's my mod which disabled all questions and restores both the top and the bottom panel:

gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel
rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel
pkill gnome-panel

The problem herein is that the tool only works properly as long as it's started "after" the GNOME Desktop has been completely started. Right now I haven't found the right position in the GNOME autostart chain to launch the modified script automatically, yet.

Hope someone finds a solution in the near future... :-)
