Dear Maintainer,

I copied /usr/share/icewm/* to $HOME/.icewm and started customizing. For the
taskbar clock I kept the default options, simply uncommenting them.

TimeFormat="%X"
TimeFormatAlt=""
DateFormat="%c"

This options resulted in a flashing taskbar clock. Commenting them out again
fixed the problem.

I should not expect a flashing clock, ever. Why uncommenting default options
caused it is beyond me.
