OK, I suppose I can get this working on my own system, but my main
point is: why does GTK include a function such as gtk_show_uri
which depends on a big stack of unspecified stuff?  At least this
should be mentioned in the documentation.  As I said before, up
till very recently one has been able to rely on GTK functions
"just working" so long as the compile-time dependencies are
satisfied.
