this is perl looking for the method "main_window", not finding it, and trying
to autoload it, and *still* not finding it.

that's because "main_window" was a convenience method in gtk2-perl <= 0.12. 
this function doesn't exist in gtk2-perl >= 0.20, because after the rewrite we
tried very hard to avoid adding functions that don't exist in gtk+ itself.


the method is trivial to replace, if you don't mind hacking up the
application.  you can see main_window's 15-line implementation at line 188 of
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gtk2-perl/gtk2-perl/Gtk2/Gtk2.pm?annotate=1.6
