And it has worked just fine for me in the past too...
I've even had a very similar bug that I thought was fixed...
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=304
Hmmm, this looks like exactly the same problem, and applying a similar 
patch solves it.

Sorry, should have checked that beforehand. I've updated the patch on 
the bug, and attached it here, would it be possible for it to be 
applied? Could someone else test with a standard setup to make sure it 
doesn't break anything, can't see how it could.
