Subject: Debian 9.1 amd64 Xfce panel clock broken

debian-user:
I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop with an Intel Core Duo T7400 CPU, 2 GB RAM,
16 GB SSD, and a fresh install of debian-9.1.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso, with all
updates and upgrades as of now:

2017-08-09 16:59:18 root@tinkywinky ~
# uname -a
Linux tinkywinky 4.9.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.30-2+deb9u3 (2017-08-06)

# dpkg-query --show xfce4
xfce4 4.12.3
I would like to use the Xfce panel "clock" item. Unfortunately, it is broken:
- If I right-click on the Xfce panel and choose "Panel Preferences...", the
"Panel" dialog appears.
- Selecting Panel -> Items tab, "Clock" appears in the list of panel items.
- If I select Panel -> Items -> Clock and click the "Edit the currently
selected item" button, the "Clock" dialog appears.
- I then configure Clock as follows:
Time Settings
Timezone PST8PDT
Appearance
Layout Digital
Tooltip format Wednesday 09 August 2017
Clock Options
Format 05:04:55 PM
Once I have made the above settings, but before choosing "Close", the current
time is displayed at the proper location in the Xfce panel. This is what I want.
- But when I click "Close", the current time disappears from the panel -- e.g.
Clock breaks.
Looking in /var/log and dmesg, I don't see any clues.
Any suggestions for figuring out why Clock is broken and how to fix it?
David
