Tested and working :-)

Thanks to Thiago Macieira (@kde) for a nice qdbus line to replace the old dcop method  :-)

Thanks for the patch, pushed to git master.

This applies without modification to both 4.8 and 4.6 branches, so is there any reason *not* to apply it in the xfce-4.8 git branch?

The problem with KDE services shows up when you try to logout from Xfce session, that is, the loging out takes a lot of time. The proposed patch doesn't resolve this issue in my case. To reproduce, please start 'krunner' (which I use from inside Xfce). When you start 'krunner', the 'kglobalaccel' is also started, which effectively prevents fast log out. If I kill this proccess before loging out, then log out is fast.

The way I overcome this issue is to use 'kdeinit' script with the line:
kdeinit4 +klauncher +kded4 +knotify4 +krunner

and 'kdeinit_shutdown' with the line:
kdeinit4_shutdown

with original xfsm-compat-kde.c.

For me it worked quite good, so I guess there should be something else started/stopped in xfsm-compat-kde to work properly with KDE4.
