Indeed.   I pretty much maintain the xfce package in Slackware, 
which is to say that the only difference between my (unofficial)
package and an official package distributed by Slackware is the
machine on which is was compiled.

The OP has been given two good options for getting what he wants:

1) Grab the package from my personal repo:

13.0 i486:
  http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/13.0/i486/xfce-4.6.2-i486-1_rlw.txz

13.0 x86_64:
  http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/13.0/x86_64/xfce-4.6.2-x86_64-1_rlw.txz

13.1 i486:
  http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/13.1/i486/xfce-4.6.2-i486-1_rlw.txz

13.1 x86_64: 
  http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/13.1/x86_64/xfce-4.6.2-x86_64-1_rlw.txz


2) Compile the package on his own system using my build script:

  13.0: http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/sources/13.0/xfce-4.6.2/
  13.1: http://rlworkman.net/pkgs/sources/13.1/xfce-4.6.2/


To the OP:  if it's not *immediately* clear how to build the package
on your own system using the material posted above, just get the
package.  Really.
