Re: Proposal to enable accessibility by default for GNOME development releases

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

These lines are supposed to say "hey, if the key is defined, then use
its value regardless of what the default setting is":
 
+  a_t_value = gconf_client_get (gconf_client, ACCESSIBILITY_KEY, NULL);
+  if (a_t_value)
+    a_t_support = gconf_value_get_bool (a_t_value);

This allows you to disable a11y by setting the key to False.  I hope
this addresses the concern you raised.
