 That clearly proves what Stephan said: That "it requires libgtk+2.0
v2.10 or greater to run", and the approach is a quite dirty hack and is
nothing I would suggest endusers to do because it is a cause for
troubles and I wouldn't want have people going such dirty hack paths to
start pestering around with further problems it propably will bring.

 So long,
