still not resolved, I will leave it for the developers to try and figure out? However, I downloaded source, if def'd out offending code, compiled and installed it. Seems to be running fine.

I've send the problem to the xfmw4 developer. He'll probably take a look at it when he has time.

I have the same problem while trying to build xfwm4 from sources. Debian Linux i386 with Xfree86 4.6.0 & newest gtk+

It was a typo that will be fixed in the 4.4.2 release.

It only affects systems without XShape 1.1.
