gnome-core-1.5.3

[Glynn Foster <glynn foster sun com>]

Yet another glorious *alpha* release in gnome-core's history.

Important questions to ask?
---------------------------

Is it good enough for a 2.0 release? hahahaha
Can you bring it home to meet your parents? [shudder]
Will it make you cringe enough to start working on it? [ugh]
Will it turn you to drink once you start hacking on it? Yes
