$ wget http://archive.xfce.org/src/xfce/xfce4-panel/4.6/xfce4-panel-4.6.3.tar.bz2
$ wget http://xfce.fabiannowak.de/xfce4-panel/patches/launcher_patch_20090516_r29967.diff
$ tar xjf xfce4-panel-4.6.3.tar.bz2
$ cd xfce4-panel-4.6.3
$ patch -p1 -i ../launcher_patch_20090516_r29967.diff

Then build the panel as usual.

Christoph
