I'm sorry if I sound a bit unfriendly, but are you sure you want to run
a development version of xfce4? It seems you don't have very much
experience with building applications from source. 

There is a good change you will find things not working as expected or
even at all and we do expect people to be able to recover from that.

On the other hand, it ususally works -- I haven't had any real problems
with it for months -- so it's not as bad as I make it sound.

Anyway, if you want to try, by all means do, but please remember this is
development code and there are reasons it is not released yet. 

greetings,
	Jasper
