I figured it out. If I had scrolled down the file
/opt/garnome/etc/gconf/2/path, I would have found the
following lines:

xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory
xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults

Neither /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory nor
/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults exist on my machine,
which is what gconf-sanity-check-2 was complaining
about.

Methinks a GARNOME 0.13.0a is due....
