XFFM & XFDESKTOP build bug in XFCE4

I have successfully compiled and installed very recent CVS versions of

libxfce4util
libxfcegui4
libxfce4mcs
xfce-mcs-manager
xfce-mcs-plugins
gtk-xfce-engine-2
xfce-utils
xfce4
xfce4-iconbox
xfprint
xfwm4

they compile and install like a wonderful beautiful dream

then I hit a BRICK WALL with

xffm
xfdesktop

I have Mac OS X 10.2.6 with everything loaded/updated correctly with Fink.
I have dbh_1.0 installed.


It's been this way for months without change.
The bug is exactly the same without the slightest movement on resolution.
I've read examples on the web of other people having the same bug...

quite simply: NOBODY IS ADDRESSING THIS BUG !!!

XFFM compile (the entire build sequence)

XFDESKTOP compile (just the last part)

Please help.

I can send logs, status, whatever.

Don't go to final on XFCE4 without resolving this build bug issue.
Many people have it.
