Question, when building the packages for these releases, i noticed the modules are still stored in
{%_libdir}/gtk-2.0/2.0.0/immodules/
(and the same for loaders)

the 2.0.0 directory made me think that this was related to the version of the package, however gtk+ 2.0.1 and pango 1.0.1 still store the immodules & loaders & modules in '2.0.0' and '1.0.0'.

Was this intended? Isnt it related to the version number? Or is this a 'bug' ?

The 2.0.0 in the path is expanded from the GTK_BINARY_AGE variable in the Makefile, which for gtk x.y.z is defined as:
 x.y.(z - interface_age)

Since gtk 2.0.1 didn't add any interfaces (just bug fixes), it has an interface age of 1 (2.0.0 had an interface age of 0). So it's modules are in the same directory as 2.0.0's. The same will most likely be true of all 2.0.x releases of gtk.
