garnome-2.11-20050610.1755: Report on Desktop build



Managed to build all of the desktop. Decided to try it out before moving
on to building the office suite.  Set up a clean user [initially w/o any
gnome dot files]. Added an appropriate .xinitrc file. Logged on as the
new user from the command line.

The bad news:

	gnome-panel crashes over, and over, and over, in an endless loop

Grrrr...
