First, the bug does not only affect "lxpanelctl run" but to any lxpanelctl 
command. Couldn't the 
thread be renamed?

I have this problem running a regular ubuntu 11.10, with  lubuntu-desktop.
It seems, the bug appears only in this combination and not in clear 
lubuntu-installations.

According to source code, lxpanelctl sends via XSendEvent() an event to
DefaultRootWindow(). As lxpanelctl exits with exit code 0, I suppose the
event was sent correctly. However, it seems, this event never reaches
the xpanel. Anyone here who knows how to debug X11 events? Somewhere I
read, that some window managers/desktop managers replace the X11 root
window in some weird ways. Maybe this is the case here?
