"Hacks" from recent xscreensaver versions should work fine in 
gnome-screensaver.  For now, you will have to use gconf directly to 
select them.  There are many reasons for this.  I will just include a 
few reasonable ones.  For now, the only one is a rewritten Popsquares 
that matches the user's theme colors.

I would very much like to avoid a noisy discussion about which hacks are 
best.  ;)
