Since several other people have already reported success with xfce, I suspect something went wrong during the Xorg upgrade on your machine. Some port(s) might have been built with old headers, old libraries or linked with both old and new libraries. If you don't want to spend any time trying to figure out the exact cause, the one sure-fire way to resolve this is to delete all your packages, then delete everything under /usr/local (backup what you still need!) and reinstall everything. If you do want to figure it out you could look at the output of "ldd /usr/local/bin/xfce4-session" and see if it links to different versions of the same library.
