just tried

export GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE="xml::/home/lars/tmp/gconf.xml.defaults_test"
SCHEMAS="*.schemas"
for S in $SCHEMAS; do
  gconftool-2 --makefile-install-rule /etc/gconf/schemas/$S >/dev/null
done

on my fedora box and it really works!
it generates the exact same db as in /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/
thats nice! :-)

cheers
