We shouldn't be using non-open software to develop Xfce.

<small rant>
I don't understand why Rosetta isn't open and AFAIK Canonical has never 
given a reason, so I can only assume it is meant as a competitive 
advantage. Xfce should not favor any distribution or operating system 
over another, so as far as I'm concerned using Rosetta is out of the 
question.
