Also worth noting that if building from CVS is too painful for you, you can also try just building from tarballs with JHBuild (see http://blogs.gnome.org/view/newren/2005/10/04/0); doing that might be a good first step towards compiling from CVS. You'd probably want to stick with the 2.12.1 moduleset for now, though a preliminary copy of the moduleset for the gnome-2.13.1 release will be made available in about 2-3 hours or so for the adventurous.
