sudo apt-get build-dep xfce4-indicator-plugin

get xfce panel from git:

git clone git://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel
git checkout andrzejr/wrapper3
./autogen.sh --enable-gtk3
(above you can add --prefix=/usr if you're not afraid of reinstalling your xfce4-panel with "sudo apt-get install xfce4-panel --reinstall")
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig (to update libraries)

get libxfce4ui from git:
git clone git://git.xfce.org/xfce/libxfce4ui
./autogen.sh --enable-gtk3
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
