I think the compile_list needs some reordering. Complie glib, gtk+ first. Then
imlib, ORBit.

This will run make if autogen failed and it will run make install even if make
failed. Try to replace ; with && like this:

   system "su - gnomecvs -c \"cd $_; make distclean; ./autogen.sh
 --prefix=/usr/local && make && make install && /sbin/ldconfig"";

I'm sure, but I think all packages except glib and gtk+ will also need
--with-gtk-prefix=/usr/local.
