After more testing I can confirm this bug is still present. Upon every login the spawning of xfdesktop processes is out of control, resulting in constant spawning of processes until I kill them all. Usually it results in an entirely unresponsive system unless I switch to a VT and kill them all.
Once they have all ended, I can start xfdesktop manually and it functions as expected.
