[TriLUG] xfce4-panel for a remote and a local machine

Is there a way to have two xfce4-panel's running at once on one desktop? 
Specifically, I'd like to keep one running for the local machine and 
another for a remote server I want to monitor. But if it's running on the 
local machine, I get the following on the remote:

aperrin at che:~$ ssh -X perrin xfce4-panel
** Message: xfce4-panel already running



The same command works fine if the local one isn't running, so it's 
clearly about the X server, not the machine it's actually running on.
