	I believe the only part of this you need to change is:

@@ -2755,7 +2781,11 @@ gconf_orb_release (void)
 char*
 gconf_get_daemon_dir (void)
 {
-  return g_strconcat (g_get_home_dir (), "/.gconfd", NULL);
+  if (gconf_use_local_locks ())
+    return g_strdup_printf ("/tmp/gconfd-%s",
+                            g_get_user_name ());
+  else
+    return g_strconcat (g_get_home_dir (), "/.gconfd", NULL);
 }
 
 char*

	This needs to be:

if (gconf_use_local_locks)
	return linc_get_tmpdir ();

	Of course - the ORB sets that, in ORBit2/src/orb/GIOP/giop.c
(giop_tmpdir_init) - but assuming you have initialized the ORB you
should get a valid path back to directory the ORB has to ensure is
secure etc.

	HTH, it'd be great to get this in,

	Regards,

		Michael.
