This makes Gnome a little more robust to tampering from overcurious
kids:

Steven, we'll probably pick this up automatically from the olpc repo,
but you may want to double-check to ensure it's really in.
I still think we should also have a panic key at boot time for a more
drastic recovery:
rm -rf ~olpc/.gconf ~olpc/.gnome2 ~olpc/.config ~olpc/.cache ~olpc/.local
If we don't provide this, support technicians of the various deployments
will simply continue doing what they do now: reflash the laptops that
don't seem to boot properly.
