Unconditionally BBCLASSEXTENDing everything gnome is a great way to hack
around build issues and create a convoluted dependency mess that isn't
really required. I'd much rather we try and minimise the amount of
-native dependencies to those actually needed.

Comparing our builds against other systems its becoming clear our
convoluted dependency trees are one of the areas we don't do as well and
it hurts performance :(.

Cheers,

Richard
