On the bug report, there is a mention of an icon not being positioned 
correctly (covering the clock?) which is what will be causing the above 
issue. It's essentially a repaint loop that I got when developing as 
well - whenever there were positioning issues. I'll post something on 
review board in the next day or two to detect and prevent these loops. 
Of course, that's only half the issue though.
