Here are the new patches. Hope everything it's ok.
I took the liberty to send the as attachment to avoid scambling them.
There is one main patch for base xfce components' update + patches for
other packages part of xfce. I also added two new components of xfce.
I'll send the rest in their own bug report.

Reminder, those patches should not be merged before patch #37253:
