Having played with this further, there are several GNOME components that
need to be at least 2.4 level, a couple others that need to be GNOME 2.6
level and a couple others that need to be GNOME 2.8 level.

Installing GNOME 2.8 on WBEL 3 is not practical ... you would have to
basically upgrade it to Fedora Core 3 ... so you might as well install
Fedora Core 3.

I'll continue to play with it and see if I can get a hodge-podge of only
the GNOME components required to install Evolution-2.0.2 to build and
run together, but I don't think it will work.  I've been wrong before
though :)
