You can report it, but this belongs more to the upstream, so to xfce 
gitlab instance.

FreeBSD ports provide ports, but actual bugs in the upstream project 
should be reported there. While I can try to help and debug things, and 
sometimes also fix them, I actually have little understanding of the 
xfce software internals, so fixing such a bug (which as I state later 
loooks more GTK related) goes beyond my abilities.

The backtrace does not help especially because none of the frames 
references an xfce part, everything seems to happen in gtk and its 
dependencies.

Could you describe what you were doing when the crash happened?

Could you compile xfce ports with debugging symbols and file a bug 
report at the xfce gitlab instance also describing exactly what you were 
doing?

Another factor that could be important, are you using a loocale setting 
different from the default C or english ones?
