We're currently porting the rest, and clearly people will have to choose *one* core Xfce (either 4.12/gtk2 or 4.14/gtk3). However as far as non-core apps like Parole go, you should in theory be able to use another version. If for a reason you can't ship the GTK+3 version now, but are happy to use a GTK+2 version, this is fine for us. There might be a reason why it doesn't compile anymore, e.g. some change we made in libxfce4ui/util (though I think it should work just fine). In that case, we might be able to help you write a distro-patch that makes it build for this specific architecture and distro. I don't think we want any more gtk2/gtk3 ifdefs in the code base (I'm specially stressing this out as I'm speaking about code that *other people* are maintaining, not me! :-) ) but our goal is to help everyone run our apps, so if you're getting stuck somewhere, do chat with us.
