No, it compiles with Gnome support, which doesn't actually use Gnome,
and therefore doesn't and shouldn't install Gnome.
All this option does is make Window Maker conform to the Gnome window
manager specification, so that any Gnome applications which you happen
to run make hints about their layout etc. If you have Gnome installed,
then this gets turned on automatically for you (via bsd.gnome.mk).
