Originally it was actually an applet,
like /usr/libexec/battstat-applet-2, that should only get run by
gnome-session, not directly.
bonobo-activation-server is what runs panel applets, at gnome-panel's
behest.
Which is still pretty much the case, its
not meant to be hand-run after its been added to your session. It's
debatable whether or not it should continue to live in /usr/libexec now
though, since its not a panel applet any more, but a notification icon.
In order to get it in the session in the first place, you need to run
it (either from the menus with a .desktop file or from the command line)
so it should prolly be in /usr/bin.
Cheers,
Mark.
