Well, since you asked: on FC5, I have gtksourceview, gnome-python2-extras, 
gnome-python2-gtksourceview, and gnome-python2-gnomeprint all installed... 
And no syntax highlighting in meld. :( python -c 'import gtksourceview' 
emits no errors. Line numbers do work in meld. Syntax highlighting works 
nicely in gedit, so gtksourceview must be working.
