Unfortunately I am unable to use these steps to success.
I was wondering - maybe my configuration settings from 1.2 are conflicting
somehow?  I tried removing them, but I found them in several places -
.gconf/apps/meld, .gconf/apps/gnome-settings, ~/.gnome2.  i tried removing
all of them, but the settings still show up.

I will file a bug unless people think that is worth trying first.

Thanks for the help!
