>Description:
When xfce4-panel is evoked it attempts to load and register its plugins. It is 
unable to complete this operation because the plugins have an undefined symbol, 
each plugin produces an error like this:

** (xfce4-panel:29726): WARNING **: module                   
/usr/pkg/lib/xfce4/panel-plugins/libtriggerlauncher.so                  cannot 
be opened: dlopen(/usr/pkg/lib/xfce4/panel-plugins/libtriggerlauncher.so, 10): 
Symbol not found: _xfce_plugin_check_version

Similarly, xfce-mcs-manager produces errors like:

** (xfce-mcs-manager:29717): WARNING **: Module 
                    /usr/pkg/lib/xfce4/mcs-plugins/xftaskbar_plugin.so cannot 
be opened                    
(dlopen(/usr/pkg/lib/xfce4/mcs-plugins/xftaskbar_plugin.so, 10): Symbol not 
found: _mcs_plugin_check_version

One can find a thread on the xfce mailinglist about this issue here: 
http://foo-projects.org/pipermail/xfce4-dev/2003-March/002440.html

They don't seem to really offer a solution except: try and recompile it
but there may be some insight I missed.

This unresolved symbol (specifically _mcs_plugin_check_version) is one of the 
compile errors I had (which I summarized in pkg/32947) when trying to compile 
xfce4-session. I was unable to fix it by using the method I mention in the PR.


>How-To-Repeat:
Run startxfce4 on a darwin box with xfce4 compiled. 
>Fix:
Unknown, try and recompile mcs-manager maybe?
