There have been a lot of changes and not all were compatible with the older version. However there are more bugs in the current version than in the previous version. Aw the fun of running a developement version.

but in the end you will help make it possible to run xfce4.3 in a
debian-based system -- and make it happen for dapper, which is just
around the corner!  so thank you.
