Much too complicated.  I just used the gconf editor to add sawfish as the wm,
(key /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager  value sawfish).
then after an X restart sawfish is the windows manager.  I don't remember how
I got sawfish-ui installed, I certainly didn't do anything beyond the menues
on the panel, so maybe it was automatic.  There in System/Preferences is a
new entry Windows, which is the sawfish-ui.  Not well named, I'll admit.

There is nothing I can grep in my home directory that mentions sawfish-ui.
