It seems like the correct behavior would be to notice the error,
remove all of ~/.gnome (since we would only have gotten into this state
if it didn't exist before) and echo a message to the console indicating
that the GNOME desktop couldn't be set up due to lack of user quota, and
potentially referring the user to OLC for assistance.
