Do you try to recompile Xorg without HAL support (Xfce core elements
don't need it).
For shutdown (and reboot), Xfce needs to configure polkit. You must
create .pkla file in
/usr/local/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/ (see
x11-wm/xfce4-session/files/pkg-message.in).
For shutdown and reboot action you can run `pkaction | grep consolekit.system'
