This one is not important, some MCS plugin don't check the existence of 
the configuration file.

Here, several core components die which make me think of an issue with 
the session client code in libxfcegui4. A backtrace would be helpful I 
think (even if restoring xfce4-session fix the problem, it fixes the 
effects and not the root cause of the problem.)

Can you try to get a backtrace for us please? I cant' reproduce the 
problem myself.

TIA
Cheers,
Olivier.
