It is probably built before / without Thunar.
Xfdesktop depends on Thunar for this, so you should probably recheck
the build order , or the relevant use flag (which I do not know since
I do not use gentoo).

Xffm does not depend on xfce4 any more, check
http://xffm.foo-projects.org/
and see if there is a newer version masked (or just install your own)
