If you build the packages in this order, it can't go too wrong (works
for me with Xfce SVN):
 libxfce4util
 libxfce4mcs
 libxfcegui4
 xfce-mcs-manager
 xfce-mcs-plugins
 xfce-utils
 xfce4-icon-theme
 xfce4-session
 xfwm4
 xfce4-panel
 gtk-xfce-engine-2
 xfprint
 orage
 xfwm4-themes
 xfce4-appfinder
 xfce4-mailwatch-plugin
 libexo
 terminal
 thunar
 xfdesktop

Maybe someone should make a build order tree, or something like that, so
people easily can see what packages they can omit, if they doesn't want
them all. That would be cool.
