Good point. I thought we might be able to do that when (if?) we move the
sources from xfce-devel to their final location (xfce4?). I'd vote for 
this naming scheme:

xfce4-<something>
libxfce4-<something>

At least for the directory names and package names. For actual binary
and lib names it may be too much trouble.
