You need to install `libxfce4ui` and ensure it's configured to enable
the Glade catalogs (./configure --enable-gladeui)
You'll need at least the following dependencies to build it though:
- xdt-autogen (in xfce4-dev-tools[1])
- libxfconf (in xfconf)
- dbus-glib-1 (probably from freedesktop.org or gnome.org?)
- libxfce4util
I gave up after the `dbus-glib-1` dependency, so there might be more.
Note that they need to be *bleeding edge* versions if you're getting
from Git, since I had a fairly recent clone of these and I'm running an
updated Debian Wheezy and I still didn't have new enough versions of
everything.
If you get `libxfce4ui` (and maybe the -dev/-devel package for it?) from
your package manager it would be a lot easier if you aren't planning on
hacking on it.

[1] The `autogen.sh` script in `xfce4-dev-tools` seems broken, so you
might need to just use `autoreconf -vfi` for that one.
