right now xfce uses libxml2 for some config file parsing, tho in general 
we're trying to drop that in favor of the simpler, faster xml parser in 
glib.

xfce has 3 'foundation libraries' i guess you could call them - 
libxfce4util, libxfcegui4, and libxfce4mcs.  the first is a general 
utility library, the second a GUI utility library, and the third a 
library to help interface with xfce's IPC and configuration manager.  
those three are just starting to be fully documented (using doxygen).  
regardless, the first two are fairly self-explanatory, and the MCS 
library isn't too complicated, esp if you look at how it's used 
elsewhere in xfce.

can't really think of anything else...
