David E. O'Brien 2611fffa91 Add the NO_GUI knob for those who want a hugely-featured Vim, but don't
want the X depandancy.

Bow to numerous wishes(yelling) to make GTK the default GUI lib vs. Motif.
Bram (Vim author) prefering GTK over Open Motif weighed kinda heavy.

With my dislike of the GPV and their political agenda, I have
been resisting this demand.  [I fully agree with the reasons why the
`ddd' debugger didn't use GTK until the GNU people got a hold of it]
GNU's NIH and "brace and extend" is often as bad as Microsoft's.
And often the only reason people put up with it is because of they like
to force GNU Public Virused software forces down our throat.

Some argue that GTK is "smaller" than OpenMotif.  Maybe GTK 1.2 is (but
don't forget to look at the GTK depends, where OpenMotif has none).
But GTK 1.3 definitely is not smaller than OpenMotif (just look at its
dependancy list).

I will review my decision to use GTK as default GUI when the GTK+ 1.{3,4}
behemoth is released.
