I don't think we should have two ways of getting gimp configuration
information: that's asking for trouble.  If the shell script doesn't
work on windows but your C re-implementation does both Windows and
Unix then we should use your C code.

Keeping both around is *asking* for a maintenance nightmare, as the
facilities will diverge overtime, or people will fix bugs in one but
not the other, etc.
