Are you aware that Compaq have ported all of Gtk+ 1.2.8?

If not see
http://www.openvms.digital.com/openvms/products/ips/gtk.html
and
http://www.ourservers.net/openvms_ports/gtk/gtk_contents.html

Quote from the Compaq web page:-

     GTK+ Version 1.2.8 for OpenVMS Alpha is an unofficial, interim port of
     GTK+. Our goal is to merge the custom OpenVMS changes into the GTK+
     Version 1.3 development stream.
