Some additional details about this bug:

I run "strace -o trace.out -f xfce4-terminal" and found the following:

6828  execve("/usr/lib/vte/gnome-pty-helper", ["gnome-pty-helper"], [/*
54 vars */]) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

On my system "locate gnome-pty-helper" tells me the following:

/usr/lib/libvte2-90/gnome-pty-helper
/usr/lib/libvte9/gnome-pty-helper

Thus the path of gnome-pty-helper is wrong somewhere.

I also tried "strace -o trace.out -f gnome-terminal" for comparison. In
that case the path of gnome-pty-helper is correct:

9000  execve("/usr/lib/libvte2-90/gnome-pty-helper", ["gnome-pty-
helper"], [/* 50 vars */]) = 0
