xfce 4.8pre3 preview

[Olivier Duchateau]

I haven't tested everything, but I noticed this:

In Thunar's pkg-plist `PLIST_SUB' variables are missing.

Some plugins are not up to date including
- xfce4-battery-plugin, I send a PR
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=153661
- xfce4-wavelan-plugin (in ports tree v0.5.4, new version is 0.5.6)
- xfce4-timer-out-plugin, I send a PR
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=153475

In the Xfce mailling list, there was a discussion regarding desktop
files plugins [1], that's why I added xfcehack in bsd.xfce.mk. Should
anticipate this feature ?

I started to upgrade xfce4-power-plugin, everything compile, but when
I enable polkit, and run daemon, I get some errors, due to lack of
udisks.

> archivers/thunar-archive-plugin
> audio/thunar-media-tags-plugin
> deskutils/orage
