I've made a change to Gnome2 [3] that hardcodes the path to the Gnome2

Thanks for your investigation.

Torsten, can you look at this and see if this change is the right way
to go?  There's also another '$(FULLEXT)/enums.pod' being used at the
bottom of Makefile.PL; can it/should it be hardcoded to 'Gnome2' also?


I think it would be better to make enums.pod's dependence on the
existence of blib/lib/Gnome2 explicit, as per the attached patch.  I
tested this with EU::MM 6.57_05 and 6.78: both have the Makefile target
and hence the build succeeds.
