Summary:                    xfce-mcs-manager segfaults when xfce-settings.xml is empty
Description: 
In the 4.0 branch at least xfce-mcs-manager segfaults when
xfce-settings.xml is empty.

It should probably just exit with an error.

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=254467

I've pasted the trace from that bug below.  Also whilst the bug reported
is on Hurd I see this on Linux too.

It happens in the panel's settings plugin.  But I also see it when I run
xfce-mcs-manager on its own.

Fixed it in the stable branch. HEAD should not be affected by this bug.
