libxfce4ui/tree/configure.ac.in has the same code with the same logic.
Take a look on this:

It will make an empty and unneeded tab named FreeBSD. If you want to
keep the vendor information, it's better to write something about
FreeBSD in that file (i.e. in that tab).

See the full version of this file. If the VENDOR_INFO macro isn't
defined, all that vendor specified code is disabled.

http://git.xfce.org/xfce/libxfce4ui/tree/xfce4-about/main.c

And according to libxfce4ui/tree/configure.ac.in the VENDOR_INFO seems
to be defined only when '--with-vendor-info' is used with some not
empty value.
