There seems to be something broken with the patch.
The schema file is installed into
/@GCONF_SCHEMA_FILE_DIR@/...
It seems, that gconf-2.m4 must somehow be included in aclocal.m4 (either
via acinclude.m4 or by intalling it into m4/ and setting
AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR in configure.ac.
I also assume that you have to call AM_GCONF_SOURCE_2 in configure.ac.

Besides from that, the patch seems to work. The main concern now is the
translations. I'm a bit reluctant to ship this patch with missing
translations. If you can send me a fix for the issue above, I'll forward
it to the upstream mailing list to see if upstream would be ok with it.

Cheers,
Michael
