Sorry I always assume people can read my mind.  Rather than porting gdk
itself drop in a replacement for it and wrap the replacement so that gtk+
thinks its using gdk. This could be just as trouble some as actually
porting gdk depending on the complexity of it. For example if sdl has some
of the same functionality of gdk port gtk+ to sdl which already can use
ggi.
