Correction - Galeon is extremely sensitive to Mozilla versions. Mozilla
change the embed API frequently which breaks the source, and two C++
modules which link (galeon -> mozilla) must both be compiled wit the
same C++ compiler which complicates matters more.

Interesting. I've found the default "make install" rules to work fine,
but then again I do have GConf in /usr. May I suggest trying the galeon
packages from unstable? They work very well for me.
