Bug Description
To reproduce:
1. windows-
2. Add an applet that you don't already have, eg Fish, or Notification area (which is inexplicably missing from the default config)

4. windows-
5. Repeat steps 1 and 2, adding the same applet again.
Expected result: Same as the first time.
Actual result: gnome-panel crashes.

I ran some tests and found that this happens iff the gnome-panel is configured with "--in-process- applets= all" and presumably only happens with the default applets included with gnome-panel itself.
