Marcin,

  I have no argument with you or what you've contributed. FWIW, here are
snippets from /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/xfce.spec:

%define         name    xfce
%define         version 3.8.18
%define         release 1
%define         prefix  /usr
   ...
%build
if [ ! -f configure ]; then
  ./autogen.sh --prefix=%{prefix} --datadir=%{datadir}
--sysconfdir=%{confdir} \
  --disable-dt --enable-gtk-engine=%{gtkengines} --disable-xft \
  --enable-gdm --enable-taskbar --with-gdm-prefix=%{gdmdata}
else
  ./configure --prefix=%{prefix} --datadir=%{datadir}
--sysconfdir=%{confdir} \
  --disable-dt --enable-gtk-engine=%{gtkengines} --disable-xft \
  --enable-gdm --enable-taskbar --with-gdm-prefix=%{gdmdata} \
  --enable-oldstyle
fi
make

  Please note that "--enable-taskbar" is there.

  Yup. I see in there.

Thanks,
