I think (I'm almost sure) the latest version of gtk2hs-buildtools is
needed to build gtk-0.11.2.

I would not try to patch gtk in isolation. What is the opinion of gtk2hs
developers?

What happens to packages that use glib, cairo, pango and gtk (i.e.
glade)? They need to be recompiled, too.

Ok, I'll (try to) report it for the debian package haskell-gtk (0.11.0-3)
