Actually, more interesting is the reason, why was full eutoreconf triggered,
instead of eutoconf. It should be a few lines back.

[Comment 3 Rafał Mużyło 2008-06-25 16:23:04 UTC]

And this will suck anyway, as xfce autogen.sh seems to be one of those eautoreconf-incompatible. It calls some native xfce tools (something called 
xdt-autogen).
