The particular ChangeLog entry you're referring to talks about removing
gtk_input_add_interp from `gtk-compat.c', which I presume was originally
there for backward compatibility.  

Now, gtk+ doesn't have `gtk_input_add_interp' again, but `gtk.defs'
still refers to it.  That's why the link error.

To make things clear, gtk+ original didn't have g_i_a_interp, but later
on added it.  `guile-gtk' had a compatibility function for that for some
time, since it referred to g_i_a_interp in gtk.defs.  Later on, it
dropped backward compatibility with the above change.  Now, gtk+ dropped
g_i_a_interp in favour of g_i_a_full, but guile-gtk wan't updated.  So,
the link errors.  I checked in a quick fix, and Marius cleaned it up, in
CVS a couple of days ago.

There seems to be a problem with the AnonCVS server not being updated.
You may want to complain to cvsmaster@gnome.org.
