----
xfce4-dev-tools (only required if you build from GIT)
libxfce4util
xfconf
libxfce4ui (new in 4.8), libxfcegui4 (deprecated since 4.8), libxfce4menu
(deprecated since 4.8), garcon (new in 4.8) & exo
xfce4-panel
thunar
....

Can i conclude from your statement that you've already done all upto thunar?
Thats a big chunck already!

So `left to do' are xfce4-settings, xfce4-session, xfdesktop, xfwm4,
xfce-utils, xfce4-appfinder, ...

Have you analysed what additional packages would need updating for their
dependencies? Is dbus-glib already up-to-standard? What package do they want
for that `perl-xml-parser' and have we already imported? etc...
