It's been several weeks now and I just got around to update jhbuild
modulesets.

 - this brings eggdbus in our dependency tree, I'll just add it to
   "Known Dependencies of our Dependencies", objections?

 - gconf-editor is waiting for a patch to be applied
   http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585596

 - gnome-session vs polkit vs ConsoleKit
   http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585614

 - gnome-system-tools still depends on the old version, and I don't
   see it listed in the Fedora feature page

 - gnome-lirc-properties (not in official modulesets) needs to be
   ported, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=516069
   (I couldn't find a bug report in bugzilla.gnome.org)
