I just verified on my Debian/Xfce (via VirtualBox on OS X) and all of them
do work with touchpad-panning.

What is the problem with it?
Doesn’t it pan at all?

As said in the other mail these are the same events as for the scroll-wheel.
So, if the touchpad in general works with touchpad-panning disabled and 
using shift/ctrl modifiers, it should also be OK with it enabled.
There is no platform magic involved...
