I assume you mean Emacs CVS. As GTK has been around for quite some time
it's strange that the standard release still has no support for it. The
standard (Motif?) scrollbar looks (excuse me) so darn ugly and I think
Emacs deserves a more appealing appearance on the GNOME desktop. 

How (exactly) do I download and compile the developer version of Emacs?
I have no experience with CVS.
