Won't work (from outside), as intltool is used to generate the .desktop 
files from the .desktop.in files. You could of course file a problem 
report to the gnome people, requesting to make atleast the XML file 
handling optional (in fact we don't need the XML file handling except 
for the xfce4-panel).
