since the installer failed, i tried the slower way:

  root: libxfce4mcs-4.1.90> pwd
    /usr/local/src/xfce-4.1.90/src/libxfce4mcs-4.1.90
  root: libxfce4mcs-4.1.90> ./configure
    ...
	checking for libxfce4util-1.0 >= 4.1.13...
	Requested 'libxfce4util-1.0 >= 4.1.13' but version of libxfce4util is 4.0.6

    configure: error: Library requirements (libxfce4util-1.0 >= 4.1.13) not met;
	consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
	if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.

  root: libxfce4mcs-4.1.90> ./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local 
    ... [the same error]

  root: lib> pwd
    /usr/local/lib
  root: lib> d
    ... libdbh.a  libxfce4util.la  libdbh.la  libxfce4util.so
	libdbh-1.0.so.1  libdbh.so  libxfce4util.so.1  pkgconfig
    libdbh-1.0.so.1.0.0  libxfce4util.a  libxfce4util.so.1.0.4 ...

i tried rebooting, but the same thing happened.
i realise this may not be Xfce-specific,
but it is a user's problem, which i don't remember running into before.

i'll now have another go w the installer.
