The bonobo stuff is only used when compiling for GTK 2 with Gnome
support. I generally discourage compiling with Gnome, it has its
problems. This is mentioned in the Makefile.
If you compile without Gnome, which is the default, no bonobo stuff is
used by Vim. If a bonobo library is still linked in then it's because
of a dependency.

Scientists decoded the first message from an alien civilization:
SIMPLY SEND 6 TIMES 10 TO THE 50 ATOMS OF HYDROGEN TO THE STAR
SYSTEM AT THE TOP OF THE LIST, CROSS OFF THAT STAR SYSTEM, THEN PUT
YOUR STAR SYSTEM AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LIST AND SEND IT TO 100 OTHER
STAR SYSTEMS. WITHIN ONE TENTH GALACTIC ROTATION YOU WILL RECEIVE
ENOUGH HYDROGREN TO POWER YOUR CIVILIZATION UNTIL ENTROPY REACHES ITS
MAXIMUM! IT REALLY WORKS!
