 Btw, are other apps correctly refreshed? Here they do, when I check/uncheck
 Antialiasing. I dont use iceweasel, but epiphany doesn't seem to pick it
 either in the gecko part, so I'd say it's an iceweasel bug.

The xfce4-session splash screen uses the default xrdb settings, not the ones
in ~/.config/xfce4/Xft.xrdb or even /etc/xdg/xfce4/Xft.xrdb. It looks like
they're not getting loaded into the X server on startup.

Suggestion: clear your ~/.Xresources file (eg. rename it). Log in and check
the output of xrdb -q.

The splash screen is the only application not being refreshed? Anyway it's run
early in the session, so I miss your point wrt. the dynamicchange.

I dont have a .Xresources. I start Xfce using the Xfce session stuff, meaning
it ends up running /etc/xdg/xfce/xinitrc, where the merge is done early in the
startup process. I don't know how it'll behave if you only run xfce4-session
(using for example the x-session-manager alternative).

# update-alternatives --display x-session-manager
x-session-manager - status is auto.
 link currently points to /usr/bin/xfce4-session
/usr/bin/xfce4-session - priority 50
 slave x-session-manager.1.gz: /usr/share/man/man1/xfce4-session.1.gz
Current `best' version is /usr/bin/xfce4-session.

I'm using xdm, which calls Xsession (as does startx), which in turn calls
x-session-manager.

It doesn't look as though /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc is being used. The only way
it seems that it gets called is to use startxfce4 or one of the bulkier
display managers (kdm or gdm).

Well, yes.
It uses xrdb configuration, and I don't think there's a way to do otherwise.
I didn't use gnome, kde or other stuff since a long time, but I don't think
they manage better.

Surely xfce4-mcs-manager should feed its current settings into xrdb at
startup, rather than only on a configuration change?
