I was thinking of trying XFCE on FreeBSD-8-Stable, but this problem has
me concerned.

Has anyone actually bugged this as yet, though? I imagine its not very
likely to get addressed (at least officially) unless there's a PR to
work against.,

Best wishes..,

btw, that's not only amd64 problem. I have same problen on -CURRENT,
i386. After delete xfce4-session xfce runs but ctrl+alt+del
doesn't lock screeen (running xflock4 from xterm - OK), and yes, I
have command `xflock4` on settings->keyboard->application shortcuts

ports/146295, assigned to oliver@. It's about two weeks old.

One thing no-one has tried to do AFAICT is to run xfce4-session under truss
and find out exactly what is causing it to fail.

PR: 146295 - it probably doesn't get fixed until 4.6.2:

In addition to this one I noticed a strange (and unreported if I am
not mistaken) issue with Thunar.
Whenever I have changed the current folder two times or so, Thunar
stops responding to mouse clicks on the right pane. So no double-click
on files are possible, neither is drag and drop. Has anyone seen this
as well or is it just me?
