It is completely possible. The point is that I've changed OS from 4.8 to
5.1 and at the same time compiled new (4.0.0) version of xfce. So I'm
not sure where the problem lies. However, all other stuff is working
properly (mutt, slrn, etc.) and I guess that something wrong is with
xfce-mcs-manager - you see it _saves_ at least xfce-settings.xml, but
cannot save other settings...

Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.
