The new bundle-gnome (2.0.3-2) _is_ the bundle for GNOME2. You should probably install the new gnome-core first, because it's just an GNOME1->GNOME2 upgrade facilitator: the tasks have been farmed out to other packages. Then update bundle-gnome.
I haven't experienced any major problems with GNOME2 and XDarwin, other than that the window controls disappear when using sawfish (the old libpng/libpng3/imlib problem). Metacity is fine, though.
