Backporting should be possible, as the code doesn't depend on  
GMime; but it's probably not a simple matter of applying the same  
patch, because of other changes.  I'd like to get the indenting  
set up as well, and backport once with both the changes.

On my box, `make' fails with

main-window.c:29:38: eel/eel-input-event-box.h: No such file or  
directory

I have

$ pkg-config --modversion eel-2.0
2.2.1

so the config test succeeds.  I don't see el-input-event-box.h on  
cvs, either.  The only subclass of GtkEventBox seems to be  
EelBackgroundBox.  ChangeLog on cvs shows this:

2004-01-03  Anders Carlsson  <andersca@gnome.org>
 	* eel/eel-input-event-box.c:
       	* eel/eel-input-event-box.h:
       	Remove these too.

Is EelBackgroundBox a replacement/substitute?
