I realized a while ago that g_debug, g_warning etc had no effect if called from unity-panel-service. unity-panel-service has always contained such calls, but the output mysteriously never appears in ~/.xsession-errors
The problem seems obvious -- it's stdout (1) and stderr (2) descriptors are closed:
ls -l /proc/`pidof unity-panel-service`/fd
total 0

lrwx------ 1 dan dan 64 2011-07-25 15:10 1 -> /dev/null

WORKAROUND:
Open a Terminal and run this:
env PANEL_USE_LOCAL_SERVICE=1 unity --replace
Then you will see all the missing messages in the terminal.
