I've committed some code to CVS which uses your idea above for
everything (even if the gdk_draw_pixbuf is present).  Thanks for
tracking this down.

Hopefully it should now build on a "vanilla" Red Hat 8 machine; 
please can you test the CVS version and confirms this?

If you have to force the load, it's missing a Conglomerate dispspec (a
".xds" file) describing the file format.  Currently it only knows about
the ones that come pre-packaged with Conglomerate, but we hope to allow
users to build their own soon.  Have a look in the "examples" subdir of
the code.  Clicking on "Force" builds one automatically.  You can
save/edit the resulting dispspec using options on the "Tools" menu, and
should be able to get Conglomerate to recognise it by hacking it into
examples/Makefile.am

I don't fully understand.  What was outputting the validation errors? 
Conglomerate, as it loaded a file, or some other program that you used
on a file which you created in Conglomerate?  Or something else?
