Brian,

   I've found many applications over the years that will look for a library in
/usr/local/lib rather than in /usr/lib. Whether that change between
xfce-4.0.6 and -4.2.0/.1 comes from xfce or slackware I don't know. But,
putting the current version (or a soft link) in /usr/local/lib, too, fixed
it.

Thanks,

Rich
