No luck:

libc6   glibc/disable-screensaver       boolean true
libpam-modules  libpam-modules/disable-screensaver      boolean true

The dir/file doesn't get created until after
gnome-screensaver-preferences has been run.  (and even then not until
something - not sure what, doesn't seem to be setting an option.  Not
sure it matters for my case:

ju...@dhcp232:~/.gconf/apps$ ls
evolution  %gconf.xml  nautilus  nm-applet  panel  update-notifier

ju...@dhcp232:~/.gconf/apps$ gnome-screensaver-preferences
** (gnome-screensaver-preferences:2413): DEBUG: Found best visual for GL: 0x91
ju...@dhcp232:~/.gconf/apps$ ls
evolution  %gconf.xml  nautilus  nm-applet  panel  update-notifier

ju...@dhcp232:~/.gconf/apps$ gnome-screensaver-preferences
** (gnome-screensaver-preferences:2423): DEBUG: Found best visual for GL: 0x91
ju...@dhcp232:~/.gconf/apps$ ls
evolution   gnome-screensaver  nm-applet  update-notifier
%gconf.xml  nautilus           panel
