Good plan.

Now when I run the client (gui-gtk-2.0) I simply get:

(civclient:7399): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: file gdk-pixbuf-io.c: line 729
(gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file): assertion `filename != NULL' failed
0: Failed reading XPM file: (null)

and the client exits.  This is because main_intro_filename is NULL.
