If there no other applications which are using 'gtk-2.2.4' try remove
it. If some depends on it, try to upgrade them (if possible with their
dependancies using portupgrade -rR xxx). With a little luck, 'gtk-2.2.4'
will not be needed anymore.

Cause of the 2 versions of the same port.

The library 'libXcursor' is provided by XFree86-libraries-4.3.0. I your
package up to date?

What is the output of 'ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/xfce4-iconbox'? All the libraries
must be resolved. A least you must have a problem with libXcursor since
the binary is linked with libXcursor.so.1.0, but not present on your
installation.

Generally speaking, are your packages up to date? Or not too old regarding
the version available in the ports tree? It seems we are searching
against some dependancies problems on versions... not directly a problem
whith xfce4-iconbox.
