I assume you're trying to install from the testing repo.

I bypassed the conflicts with:

pacman -Sf xfce4

Everything seemed to work fine except for the systray, though I presume that's unrelated to these errors (haven't checked if this is a reported bug yet). Unfortunately with xfce-svn broken, the rc2 in testing not having a working systray, and the version from extra being a bit dated I have been missing out on Xfce so far.

Bug reports added for both problems #6176, #6177 since I have the same problems.
