I think there are some dangling symlinks in gnome-0.8/guile-gtk.

You could try to correct them by pointing them at an existing copy of
config.sub, for example.  Gnome-0.8 itself should contain one in its
toplevel dir.

Gnome-0.9 seems to be imminent, so you might just wait for that.

That isn't you problem, and no, there is no patch.  Sorry.

I know I left a mess with all those patches.
