An interesting side note is that if you enable assistive technologies gnome-panel restarts instead of locking up. This behavior I find easier to deal with.
Clicking on launch buttons in the second display sometimes works.
This is really annoying.
(Sorry for the double post, but I got the wrong bug the first time.)
