FWIW, it built beautifully for me.  Two different Linux machines, one
using gtk+ from 0.99.8 and the other using 0.99.9. (both running Red
Hat) It also probably built just fine on a SPARC running Red Hat... I
presume I would've gotten a question or two had it not.

One thing that would be very nice, is if everyone would start
standardizing on how to include gtk.h (as well as gdk.h and glib.h)...

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

Works best, I think... usually means less fiddling with -I options to
the compiler.  Especially if you use the RPMs for gtk on
ftp.redhat.com:/pub/contrib... it puts the gtk include directory in
/usr/include so there's no tweaking necessary. (BTW, there are RPMS in
/pub/contrib... ignore the gimp-data one... 'tis from an older package
built by someone else. :)

In any case, I'm absolutely ecstatic that you released some code!  The
GzillaByteSink stuff is precisely what I needed...

Being 3:00am, I think I ought to stop rambling and get some sleep
before I get back to work. :)

Night all.
