*Don't* do that! Beside you want to use every masked package what is not 
wise if you need a working and stable system! The best way to unmask 
xfce: Add every needed package to /etc/portage/package.unmask. Start 
with "xfce-base/xfce4", make an "emerge -vp xfce4" and you will get 
information on the next blocked ebuild. It's not the fastest way but so 
you get sure to have only needed packages unmasked. If you put a comment 
in front and behind every added package you can easily remove them after 
they got stable.
