As an aside, wouldn't it be better to be using gcc-3.x on that?

This used to be on by default, then gtk-doc was fixed up to depend on what
it needed, but there were some big problems with gtk-doc when it was

there for the next release.

Haven't seen it. Please lodge an eog bug report.

Haven't seen it. Lodge a libsoup bug report.

Worth mentioning the version differences in your bug report (for eog at
least).
