Ok, my libtool is the latest version available in Debian/testing.

I did solve the problem in a pretty ugly fashion - moved
/usr/lib/libxfce* out of the way, linked
/ust/testing-xfce4.4beta1/libxfce* in /usr/lib, built xfce4-panel and
then restored the original libs in /usr/lib. :-)

I know this is probably not the best solution, but it was the fastest
I could think of (having that I don't want to install 4.4beta1 in
/usr or /usr/local).

Thanks for the tips Brian and Juha!

I've always wondered - in a situation like this, when two replies to
one question are recieved is it ok to reply to both in one mail or
one should send a mail to each reply separately? Sorry for the poor
explanation, I hope you can get what I want to say. :)
