I got the icons installed by doing this:

a) Open the menu in kickoff mode.  It doesn't work in traditional mode.

b) Drag the desired icon from the menu to the desired panel.  Note that
you might have to move the cursor around to find a space where it will
allow it to be dropped and then move it later.  You might also want to
make the panel wider than it needs to be so that it will allocate space
to allow you to drop the icon on it. 

Once the icon is on the panel, open it for editing and put it where you
want it.
