No, build against GTK+ 2.6.8. I saw Tor's recommendation to build
against GTK+ 2.6,
but I wasn't fully aware about the implications :-) Hans, maybe it's
good if you keep
the mailing list updated what the recommended GTK+ versions are on win32 as
you're much more into the GTK+ development. I don't have the time to follow that
in detail.

I think the separate GTK+ installer makes packaging much easier.
More popular packages like GIMP and GAIM use it for a long time.
If the split packaging results in more problem reports, we can switch back to
the old approach.
