With the ${HAVE_GNOME:xxx}, you can either do WITHOUT_GNOME=yes or
WITHOUT_GNOME=xxx.

Umm... Probably not a real fixed, because your gimp might be still
linked with gvfs. Because there was no --without-gvfs. It's clearly
that it's bug. I have fixed it. It doesn't has ${HAVE_GNOME:gvfs}
anymore as it's pointless when it's enable by default. All you have to
do is WITHOUT_GVFS and it will depends on libcurl instead if you
prefer.
