It works only with gcc, conditional compilation works
always.

It is impossible to achieve the effect of the #ifdefs (i.e.,
symbols disappearing) with this approach, so do you suggest
to use two types of marking or to remove the #ifdefs?
You can define GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED now and get errors (or
warnings in the case of functions if you wish).

And again: do you think it would be such a great improvement
that you are willing to go through the headers and add the
versioned deprecated info there?
