I hope #100023 gdkcolor-x11.c bug is fixed in 2.2.0.

I've been working on GtkGLExt - OpenGL extension to GTK (replacement of
gtkglarea). OpenGL programs typically use multiple visuals, and
different OpenGL visuals require different colormaps. Because OpenGL
applications use nondefault visuals, OpenGL windows cannot rely on
using the default colormap. Current GdkColormap works well with normal
X applications using the default visuals and colormaps, but it doesn't
work and causes some serious X errors with OpenGL applications using
nondefault visuals and colormaps.

GtkGLExt now supports GTK-2.1 and its multihead feature. But I cannot
release new version until this colormap bug is fixed.
