Summary:                    Missing items in Settings Manager on amd64
Description: 
After building xfce4 on an amd64 box, there are several items that you
cannot access in the Settings Manager. (The same xfce4 install on a x86
box works flawlessly). Most notably, there are no settings for the panel.
If I right click on the panel and select 'properties', I get
"Multi-Channel Manager Error: No such plugin "xfce"". This same problem
has occured with xfce 4.0.1, 4.0.2, and 4.0.3. All of these builds work
fine on a x86 box.

My suspicion is that this is a 64 bit problem, though I'm not sure.

I forgot to mention, the only things I see in the Settings Manager are:
"Desktop: backdrop", "Desktop: workspaces", "Session management", "Window
Manager", "Workspace Margines".

I have installed:

libxfce4mcs-4.0.3
libxfce4util-4.0.3
xfce4-4.0.3
xfce4-base-4.0.3
xfce4-panel-4.0.3

I rather vote for an endianess problem. There was a somehow very similar
problem alreay reported some time ago (see
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=842074&group_id=19869&atid=119869)

What endianness does amd64 use?

TIA
