The same happens to me with Lucid updated to now.

Maybe this helps debugging:

- When using two monitors, if you add a new panel to the right border of
the screen that is on the left side, the panel is rendered on the left
edge of the screen that is on the right side.

- In a single monitor setup, if you add a new panel to the bottom of the
screen (in addition to the default one), the existing panel is moved up
and a space for the new panel is allocated between it and the bottom of
the screen. Very probably the new panel is then rendered below this
space, out of the visible screen area.

So the "invisibility" reported is in fact the panel being rendered out
of the screen.

Restarting X makes the panels visible in their correct positions.
