Well I looked in Gtk, there they put the GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
#ifndef and #endif at the start and end of the entire header file,
when the whole object is deprecated.

http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gtk%2B/trunk/gtk/gtklist.h?revision=12634&view=markup

The when the user defined XFCE_DISABLE_DEPRECATED the compilation
should fail because the functions/structure etc are not there anymore.
