XF3 needed the separate xpm port. This is why Xpm dependencies were rolled into USE_XPM. How is it that you compiled xfce at all without X installed? X libraries *must* be present for xfce compilation, of course. I'm probably misunderstanding what you meant. The only way I can see this happening is if you installed the XF4 libraries, installed the xpm port, and then removed the xpm port.
