Well it is very slow displaying every time you left-click the clock to display 
the popup... but its working for me, displaying weather and the sunrise map 
fine.  The slowness may be the lack of caching or preemptive loading for the map 
(just a guess).

If you have not tried this in awhile (last 2 weeks or so) remove the clock from 
your panel, kill gnome-panel, and then add the clock again.
