Hmm, ok, maybe I'll have to double check on this one.  /me pokes release
engineer people...

Looks like glade is unported, and glade2 "doesn't really work yet". 
Either way, there aren't any tarballs for it, which is all we care about
that the moment, isn't it?  :)

The ld.so.conf is easy, the PATH, hmm, I can hack that into
/etc/bashrc.  GNOME_PATH, same thing.  I wonder what else I need to do. 
I wonder, (perhaps more importantly), if I should hack PATH/GNOME_PATH
into global config files, or into a GDM session...
