Just to make it clear. This configure check is unique to FVWM, gnome.m4
does not contain it. I added it because a lot of users have a non-working
GNOME instalation, usually an incorrect gnome-config or header files.
gnome.m4 does not detect this, like in your situation, so I enhanced it.
The GNOME libs support (not to be confused with GNOME WM hints) is only
used in FvwmGtk module and is fully optional. It only determines whether
FvwmGtk is a gtk application or a gnome application. It is almost safe to
say that you will not lose anything without "GNOME support in FvwmGtk".
For example, our rpms have no such support not to be dependent on GNOME.

Sorry, I am not a GNOME developer.
I would like to know if there is anything FVWM can help in this situation.
