Xfce-funklor ->xfwm crash

[Olivier Fourdan]

Ric,

No, I disagree. The syntax inside the engine changed, and using old
themes is causing syntax errors. Now, if that crashes gtk, then the root
cause of the crash should be fixed IMO...

I did not find anything wrong in my code, so I don't know what causes
the crash.

Cheers,
Olivier.
