Damien:

Note the functions removed were not exported in the header files shipped
with GConf, but only used internally by GConf.  So this is not a
problem.

>   Function removal can be a serious ABI issue. If the function was previously
>   exposed in the module's header files then it is an issue and the GNOME
>   community should be informed [NOTE: 'how' to notify is not known]. One
>   easy way to determine this is to search an old version of the package for
>   the offending header file.
