I'd prefer to use an option that the GConf autoconf macro provides over patching every module that uses GConf, as we're assured much better coverage that way.  Adding the option caught every module in the Sato image but two, which were being rather minimal with their build system and the environment variable caught those (as it affects gconftool itself).
