Here's what I've been using. It works reasonably well, but won't stop on
an error - so if gnome-libs breaks, it will still attempt to build
everything else. Haven't gotten a good handle on that yet. You'll have
to make some manual changes to it if you install somewhere other than
/opt/gnome and if you want to add packages to the build list.

It attempts to work around some bad manners in most of the
maintainer-clean makefiles as well by running aclocal first.
