 You don't need libgnomeui to run Xfce, so startup notification can be
 made optional for those who don't need/want to run GNOME. It is
 already intended to be optional in x11/Terminal, the default Xfce
 terminal emulator (and will *really* become optional, as soon as the
 patch I sent in ports/137371 gets committed).
