Well, I don't think using a modified version of a library in
contrib/ really counts as using GTK+-2.0 :-)

A similar modification was made to the main GdkRGB for GTK+-2.0 to
allow for using GdkRGB with multiple visuals and colormaps; but 
most of the GTK+-2.0 changes didn't make their way into gdk-pixbuf-xlib.

Sorry that nobody answered sooner; it really depends on whether someone
happens to know the answer is on the list. Sometimes there is a quick
answer... sometimes no answre.

(As you might imagine, I don't have a lot of time to spend on answering
questions on the mailing lists myself, unfortunately.)
