Early results don't look good - I am in the process of rebuilding (ALL
OF GNOME) again but 

/usr/ports/x11/gnomecore/work/gnome-core-1.4.1/panel/menu.c

still has multiple occurrences of 'gnome/apps' in the code.  I killed
'panel' after /usr/ports/x11/gnomecore installed a new version, but I
still get the same

** WARNING **: No system menus found!

in ~/.xsession-erros

Have a look at the cvs repository,

/usr/ports/x11/gnomecore/files/patch-ah

the diffs between the current and last version, I think all of the
errors stem from the changes that have been removed from that patch file

   I think I found the problem.  Can you change the USE_GNOME line in
   libpanel's Makefile to read:

   USE_GNOME=	gnomeprefix gnomelibs

   Then rebuild and reinstall libpanel.  See if that fixes things.
