alltray + icedove/thunderbird not working

[Lorenzo Sutton <lorenzofsutton@gmail.com>]

This is on debian wheezy with alltray v. 0.71b installed from 
repositories. It doesn't seem to work as expected with neither Icedove 
3.1.16 nor the latest Thunderbird 9.0.1 binary.

Wondering if use of XFCE4 is relevant

Before looking into bugs I'd like to know if anyone else is experiencing 
this and how to possibly debug. Google didn't turn up anything useful.

Thanks,
Lorenzo.
