While I had a look at the gcursor problem, I noticed that there are
three .desktop files in share/gnome/applications, that seem to be
indended for the "Desktop Preferences" menu:

/usr/X11R6/share/gnome/applications % grep -l Settings *
gnomecc.desktop
gstreamer-properties.desktop
screensaver-properties.desktop

I think, gstreamer-properties.desktop is the only one that should be
kept (of course it should be moved into the capplets folder)

screensaver-properties.desktop is unnecessary, since there is already a
screensaver menu item in share/gnome/control-center-2.0/capplets, and
gnomecc.desktop does nothing but listing all the configuration items
that are under "Menu > Desktop Preferences" anyway.

The files are contained in the following packages ( I won't have the
time to prepare a patch right now, I can certainly submit a patch next
week when I am back)

pkg_which gnomecc.desktop 
---> gnomecontrolcenter2-2.6.0.3

pkg_which screensaver-properties.desktop
---> xscreensaver-gnome-4.15_2

pkg_which gstreamer-properties.desktop
---> gnomemedia2-2.6.0_1
