autogen.sh fails nastily when gconf2-dev is missing. Ugly.

I'd say this should be a bug not just an enhancement unless we're talking about not targetting DE-independance, gconf especially is something that those who aren't into the GNOME way are unhappy with (last I checked, which admittedly was a number of years ago)

Perhaps, but the important part is run-time dependencies and secondly build-time depndencies. This warning is about a generate-the-buildsystem-time-dependencies. After 'make dist', gconf-related things should be completely optional.

That said, it seems wrong that GCONF is required to generate the build system when you don't actually need gconf to run or build compiz. So I suppose I'm inclined to agree.

BTW, I just now realized who you are ;)
