As I wrote before, GConf likely needs some work.  I would see what
CyGnome2 has done with this to start.  Don't know about gnome-vfs.

| shared-mime-info -> Yaakov has a version at his SF site already.
| libglade
| libgnomecanvas

I've already ported libglade and libgnomecanvas on cygwin-ports.  When
building yourself, make sure to build libglade first; libgnomecanvas
installs a glade module if libglade is present.

| hicolor-icon-theme  (freedesktop.org)
| gnome-icon-theme
| startup-notification

I have these also at cygwin-ports.

| gtk-engines

I just built this one; it's really straight forward.

| libwnck

This one's also at cygwin-ports; since it's still API-unstable, the
package names are versioned.

| vte

This needs some patches to build; see what cygnome2 did for starters.

In addition, I've ported bindings for C++ (gtkmm.org), Perl, Python,
Ruby, and Tcl.  I would imagine that at least the C++ and Python
bindings would be generally useful.
