i can't reproduce that at all.  Fedora Core 2, gtk+ 2.4.0, Gtk2 1.043.

anybody else?

gtk+ 2.4.x is binary compatible with any earlier version.  so long as 
you didn't regress, you should be fine.  if you'd upgraded from 2.2.x 
to 2.4.x you'd want to recompile the bindings to get the new widgets, 
but that's not the case.
