Created attachment 1827 
user-supplied patch to fix the behaviour

taken from the bug mentioned above:
Compile xfburn-0.3.*.  Any version causes the error with my setup.
Note that I am not using the "hal" USE flag, which most likely (or so I guess)
would fix the error.  I am using the "dbus" and "xfce" USE flags.
Actual Results:  
Linking fails with an
undefined reference to `xfburn_hal_manager_send_volume_changed'
error.

fyi: the xfce USE flag enables --enable-thunar-vfs
