OK, this is my last try to replay to this bug... :/
the behavior of the groups is not understandable for me.

I think it depends on some xml-svg-stuff.
In my case, the panel crashes with error message
(xfce4-menu-plugin:10967): Gdk-WARNING **: GdkWindow 0x4000003
unexpectedly destroyed
The program 'xfce4-menu-plugin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
(Details: serial 154 error_code 3 request_code 18 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)
.
After some timespending dumpstering i found an launcher entry with:
[Entry 0]
Name=ScummVM
Exec=/usr/games/scummvm
Terminal=false
StartupNotify=false
Comment=Interpreter for several adventure games
Icon=scummvm.svg
after commenting (#) the icon line it works.
