Generally, bugs should be reported to bug tracking systems, not to
mailing lists.
But there's nothing to say that that is a change of behaviour on the
part of gnome-terminal or libzvt rather than GTK+. (Which I would
suspect rather than a change in GTK+.) And even if it was down to GTK+,
I'd like to point out that I said not that the API *didn't* change, but
that it *shouldn't* have. I'm fairly sure that upstream would consider
API changes bugs.
A quick search reveals that this problem has been filed as a bug
upstream against gnome-terminal:
<http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138609>.
