I'm running ROX with xfwm4 via gdm right now, and in the past I've used
the xfce panel without an issue.

Are you using ROX-Session as your session manager, or xfce4-session,
or...? The answer to your question will vary based on that.

Using ROX-Session, simply put a link in your $CHOICESDIR/Autostart/ to
the panel executable. If using xfce4-session, you'll need to modify your
$HOME/.xfce4/xinitrc script to have it start the panel. If doing a
straight xsession, you might want to put the xfce panel as the last
executing program (so that when you close it, it terminates your
session).
