Here's a decent wiki article on sheetrock..scroll down to the "waste" 
header...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drywall
I have no idea of what kind of glue is used to make sheetrock, but even 
water based or latex glues would create issues for an "organic" 
gardener.  Rubber is often thought of as a natural substance, but it is 
a good example of an adhesive ingredient that might remain in the 
environment for a long, long time.
