>Description:
xfce4 doesn't save sessions. If you explicitly try to save a session via the "Session" tab in the "Session and Startup" control panel xfce4-session drops core and kills the X session.
Look like manager->session_file is NULL on entry to xfsm_manager_store_session():
$ gdb xfce4-session xfce4-session.core
Core was generated by `xfce4-session'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

I've got the non-stripped xfce4-session binary and core if anyone is interested.
>How-To-Repeat:
Fresh install of FreeBSD 9, updated to latest stable.
Ports updated to latest.
Got to the "Session" tab in the "Session and Startup" control panel and click the "Save Session" button.
>Fix:
You can prevent xfce4-session from dropping core by trapping the NULL session_file pointer and returning, but upon return to the X session from the console the screen is black and the screeen never redraws.
