One obvious option would be to stay with GTK2 forever, and to take over bug fixing for it. Another **rough** idea I always had in mind is moving all that deprecated code into some libgtk-compat library: Obviously this approach would not work for structure fields, but it should be trivial for entirely deprecated classes. This approach also should be support deprecated functions. Obviously those deprecated functions would suffer from the fact, that they cannot access internal data structures anymore. So for functions that cannot be easily be ported maybe just some stub yielding linker warnings would be created in that compat library. Filling that stub would be the task of people willing to use that deprecated function (instead of porting their code).
