I now have no idea what was causing this problem. Both gnome-terminal- data and metacity-common on my system installed "empty" schemas like the above, but removing and reinstalling them has fixed the problems. I can only assume something was broken at the time I installed these packages, although given that gconf2 hasn't changed in almost two months, and this only broke sometime in the last 5 days, I'm not sure what.
