gtk3 compile problems

[Jack <ostroffjh sbcglobal net>]

Hello,

After wondering why the main branch was giving me compile problems  
trying to use gtk3, I finally remembered how to check out a remote  
branch in git.  Now I'm getting a bunch of pango related problems.   
Searching led me to  
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-896464-start-0.html which  
basically says "Pango related errors are caused by >=dev-libs/glib-2.30  
in combination with =x11-libs/pango-1.28*. Short version is that this  
version of pango is too old for this version of glib."

I have pango 1.28.4 and glib 2.30.2.  I'd rather not try to downgrade  
pango, so I'm going to try their suggestion of removing
-DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED and -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED.  However, before I  
get too deep into this, is this a known issue, or do I just have an  
unusual configuration?

Thanks.

Jack
