Actually, I can't reproduce it by anything other than pressing Ctrl +
Alt + Del. I tried killing xfce4-panel both with TERM and KILL
signals, and xfce4-xfapplet dies as it should. Then I tried killing
the X server itself (launched by gdm) both with TERM and KILL signals,
and again xfce4-xfapplet dies.

It's only when X server is killed by that special key sequence (I
don't know enough about X to know what the difference is between that
and sending KILL signal to the X server process) that xfapplet
survives.

Thanks,

Andrzej
