You can set GNOME_PATH, and gnome-config will check those directories
too. for example, if you have some libraries installed in /opt/gnome,
do

export GNOME_PATH='/opt/gnome'

and gnome-config will find the Conf.sh files for those libraries as
well as the ones in the location gnome-libs itself is in. (put it
in your .bash_profile ;)
