I ran into the CORBA/ORBit problem described here: http://www.mail-archive.com/gnucash-devel@gnucash.org/msg16265.html
I recompiled with ORBit2-2.13.3 instead of ORBit2-2.14.2. Now gnucash runs for me without all the CORBA errors and gconfd-2 windows popping up all around. Since I'm not a developer I'm just fumbling around in the dark, but I hope this is helpful to someone. I used the gnucash 2.1.something (I think) source downloaded Oct. 20, 2006, with a most recent Changelog date of 2006-10-09. It's still not working RIGHT (I can't load my existing account file) but hey, progress.
