There's no interaction. XDG says : "if you have to store something in a
file, do it that way". With gconf, you don't store something in a file,
you store in gconf so you don't have to care.
But indeed, gconf itself saves stuffs in files, currently in .gconf.
There's a bug opened to ask gconf to put stuffs in XDG_CONFIG_HOME instead
but that's up to gconf.
The only thing an application developer needs to keep in mind is that
gconf is for preferences only, not data. (Evolution, I'm looking at you!)
