I've compiled it with --enable-gnome --enable-user-menu
--enable-single-icon --with-appspath=/usr/local/GNUstep/Apps
--enable-sound.  This is for WindowMaker-0.60.0 on Linux

I can start via startx if I have exec gnome-wm in my .xinitrc, which is
properly using WindowMaker as my default gnome window manager.  

I'll post this to the windowmaker list as well.
