Another thing I forgot about is this:

 #define COPY_FROM_LEGACY(type, key, legacy_key)                                \
        val_##type = gnome_config_get_##type##_with_default (legacy_key, &def); \
        if (!def)                                                               \
                gconf_client_set_##type (client, key, val_##type, NULL);

which is intended to copy existing settings from an old gnome_config
database into gconf, ie., to migrate from gnome 1 to gnome 2.

I don't think this is particularly useful at this point, so I'm going
to just drop this unless someone feels strongly about it.
