Since lxpanel is GLib/GTK application I would suggest to use GThread and 
GCancellable APIs, better don't call pthreads directly. And mentioned
pthread_kill() is not reliable operation which may cause problems in some
cases, avoid it, please.

Since I've merged your plugin into master branch it would be wonderful if
you could continue work on it:

1) migrate it to new plugins API (feel free to ask me details).
2) use lightweight FmXmlFile API instead of heavy libxml one.
3) implement loading of info in another thread (you may use convenient
API fm_run_in_default_main_context() to deliver results into the main
thread).

Thank you too.

Andriy.
