I’ve just uploaded my patched version of the gtk-mac-integration library and committed it into my svn 
repository. 

https://sourceforge.net/p/gimponosx/code/HEAD/tree/

The README gives some information about why I did this, as I already mentioned in my above quoted posting, 
and gives some basic documentation about how to use the library.

I’ve patched GIMP’s 2.8.10 sources to use this forked library. The changes are in app/gui/gui.c and 
app/gui/gui-unique.c. You can find the patches in my svn too at
