Turns out I don't have oaf-config at all, as it appears to be missing from
the current version of the Raw Hide RPM for oaf.

I tried to build oaf from CVS sources instead, but it failed as follows:

     % ./autogen.sh
     ./autogen.sh: gnome-autogen.sh: No such file or directory

Now, what does this mean? Where does gnome-autogen.sh come from?
