I have come across this problem and this hotfix definitely fixes it.
Symptoms
In some environments where multiple domains and multiple trusts exist, the installation of Citrix Presentation Server 4.5 appears to hang when the “Citrix is Installing Product Components” message is displayed.
The installation completes successfully if left for a period of 15 hours or more.

Disappearing taskbar in Citrix session after locking local workstation
Posted on August 28th, 2008
Problem
Problem discovered on:
- Windows 2003 R2 x64 Standard Edition
- Citrix XenApp 4.5 Hotfix Rollup Pack R02
I discovered a problem where a Citrix session is opened to a published desktop running the software levels detailed above. The session can be run as full screen or smaller. When the local client workstation is locked and subsequently unlocked, the start button and taskbar are completely missing.
The problem only occurs with multiple monitors enabled on the client workstation. With multiple monitors disabled, the problem doesn’t appear.
