I appreciate your work on porting AbiWord to GTK 3.0, but I don't think that
it is a good idea to cut support for GTK 2.x. I mean, it runs fine with GTK
2.x. There probably isn't much we'd really *need* from GTK 3.0, it probably
is more about that GTK 3.0 *differs* in some aspects.
Wouldn't it be possible to enclose your patches with GTK_CHECK_VERSION()
checks?
