Followup-For: Bug #718401

Unfortunately even the 'pkill gnome-panel' "workaround" seems to work only
once for me.
The second pkill causes a 'something has gone wrong, please logout' message.

The same problem can be observed without fiddling with plugs by switching
the primary display with xrandr.

xrandr --output LVDS1 --primary
and the right-hand side of the panel is not visible on the laptop screen
(and additionally http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=605437
or something equivalent).
pkill gnome-panel; xrandr --output HDMI1 --primary
and the panel takes only part of the external monitor, with a gray strip to
the right of it.
pkill again and you have to logout.
