Sorry, this assumes a sid install. Testing may not have 
/usr/bin/xfce4-sessions. Here is another option, which may work in testing:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Make Xfce4 selectable in the GDM menu
#

/usr/bin/xfce-mcs-manager
/usr/bin/xfwm4 --daemon
/usr/bin/xftaskbar4 &
/usr/bin/xfce4-iconbox &
/usr/bin/xfdesktop &
exec /usr/bin/xfce4-panel

As before, make it executable.
