Bug#899080: xfce4-session hangs in getrandom if crng not ready
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=899080

I think this is a symptom of Bug#898088 in libbsd0:

Bug#898088: arc4random_buf() may block for a long time
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=898088

xfce4-session uses IceGenerateMagicCookie and thus arc4random_buf to 
generate MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1.

I will merge these issues. You can also watch for updates on the source 
package page:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/libbsd

Kind regards,
