--- Comment #18 from Guido Falsi <madpi...@freebsd.org> ---
Regarding the xfdesktop crash:

xfce is using the (deprecated) G_FILE_MONITOR_SEND_MOVED, which causes the glib
backend to generate G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_MOVED events, but these are
unsupported in the GIO backend. There's an assertion which fails causing the
crash.

I'm unsure how to attack this.

One option is to disable the G_FILE_MONITOR_SEND_MOVED flag and let xfdesktop
cope with separate deleted and created events.

Another option could be to modify xfdesktop to use the non deprecated and
apparently supported G_FILE_MONITOR_WATCH_MOVES flag (and related events). This
is definitely more difficult.

I have seen no changes to this code in the upstream repositories.
