No idea :)

Ok it looks like both the old and current packages are on the CDs

LiveCD
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily-live/20080228/hardy-desktop-i386.manifest/screen
Alternate
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily/20080228/hardy-alternate-i386.list

They seem to have both gnome-screensaver and xscreensaver, squeeze and 
file-roller.
Maybe some of this caused the recent overflow of alternate ISOs ?

Indeed, my bad. It seems it takes into account the seeds, but until 
xubuntu-desktop is uploaded all its dependencies are naturally still 
present. So current Xubuntu CD testers have choice of both gnome and non 
gnome apps for now :)
