This one won't work for people that don't have XDG_CONFIG_HOME set to
"$HOME/.config". Why not simply use xfce_resource_save_location() [1],
which automatically creates the directory for you? E.g.

xfce_resource_save_location (XFCE_RESOURCE_CONFIG,
                             "xfce4/shortcuts/",
                             TRUE);
