Gtk2 1.034 (unstable)

[muppet <scott asofyet org>]

Gtk2 is a Perl extension providing Perl bindings to the 2.x series of  
the Gtk+ graphical user interface library.  This module allows you to  
write graphical user interfaces in a perlish and object-oriented way,  
freeing you from the casting and memory management in C, yet remaining  
very close in spirit to original API.  Find out more about Gtk+ at  
http://www.gtk.org , and about Gtk2-Perl at  
http://gtk2-perl.sourceforge.net/ .

Reminder:  the 1.03x series is an unstable development series.  We need  
your help to test these out and shake out bugs, but be warned that the  
APIs are not frozen and the code is not guaranteed to work.

As always, the code is available from our sourceforge project page:
http://sourceforge.net/project/ 
showfiles.php?group_id=64773&package_id=91218&release_id=215543

...and from anonymous cvs, tagged rel-1-03-4 in the directory  
/gtk2-perl-xs/Gtk2 .

* Updated Glib requirement to 1.034.
* Updated ExtUtils::PkgConfig requirement to 1.03.
