Well, I'm using GTK 2.4 and I'm currently on gnome 2.6rc1 (gcc 3.3.3).

The compile error is as follows:

symbol-browser.c: In function `gsb_update_tree':
symbol-browser.c:190: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer
without a cast
symbol-browser.c: In function `gnome_symbol_browser_init':
symbol-browser.c:868: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer

symbol-browser.c:872: error: invalid type argument of `->'
symbol-browser.c:874: error: invalid type argument of `->'
symbol-browser.c: In function `gnome_symbol_browser_set_file':
symbol-browser.c:1030: error: invalid type argument of `->'
symbol-browser.c:1037: warning: passing arg 1 of `g_list_append'

symbol-browser.c:1040: warning: passing arg 1 of `g_list_free' discards
qualifiers from pointer target type
symbol-browser.c:1042: error: invalid type argument of `->'

The compiler doesn't quite get the line numbers right but it looks like
it is the macros:

gtk_tree_path_new_root
gtk_combo_new
GTK_COMBO

Seems that these are deprecated.  Either that or it is a short circuit.
