Another thought occurred to me: You said that setting 
gtk-key-theme-name=“Mac” in ~/.gtkrc-2.0 doesn’t work in the (rather 
ancient) Gtk+ built by Homebrew. Maybe there’s a message there, that 
Homebrew tampers with the gtk source in a misguided effort to provide 
the functionality in a different way.
You say "rather ancient". To be honest, I'm at a bit of a loss trying 
to understand Gtk+ versioning. I was under the impression 2.24 was the 
last Gtk+ 2 version. Homebrew offers 2.24.25, which is the last 2.24 
version, AFAICS. But now I see the Gtk+ FTP also has 2.9x folders, but 
the dates on those source archives are much older.
As for Homebrew tampering with the Gtk source, there's no patches being 
applied in any case:
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/gtk%2B.rb

What *is* the recommended way for running Gtk+ 2 and PyGtk on Mac, as there seem to be no Mac binaries provided on the Gtk+ site? I tried a packaged PyGTK (including a Gtk+ 2.24) before, but that was very unstable running Zim (crashes on resizing windows, for example).
Best regards,
