If no one else speaks up (maybe the load applet authors?), why don't
you become the libgtop maintainer for now, since you're the main user
of the lib?

I'd agree that we should just port the stable branch unless someone
really knows what's changed in HEAD and what remains to be done to
stabilize it - since it's using only glib, the port should be trivial.
