Doh!  You're right.  USE_GNOME requires gnomecore which requires gtkhtml
which requires gal which requires libglade, which requires gnomedb,
which requires libgda, which requires bonobob, which requires
gnomeprint....

Worse than Kevin Bacon.  Sorry for the confusion.  Yes, USE_GNOME should
be all you need.  Tracing these dependencies can get tricky.
