sdlmame-0.148_p1-no_gconf.patch

there's a compile dependency to gconf for sdlmame/sdlmess.
gconf is only used one time in the whole project to seek a user font set in gnome preference, else it uses a default font.
Here's a patch to the project to allow to disable dependencies to gconf, and patch to the ebuild to use gnome flag for the people who usually uses it.
Apllies both for sdlmame and sdlmess as they share same code.

I doubt that upstream will accept this patch. You should provide proper conditionals in the code.

Your doubt are highly funded, that's not intended for upstream.
I'm also planning to do a patch intended for upstream.

sdlmame-0.167 is in the tree so we'll leave 0.148 alone.
