* Make sure we work with libwnck 2.6.3, which introduces an

some checks are done against version 2.6.3 vs 2.6.2.
however, the build will fail with libwnck-2.6.2.1.
i'd to apply the following patch in order to successfully build
this package:
Gar, that sucks. I didn't know there was a 2.6.2.1. 2.6.2 still
has the old version of wnck_window_close,
this means that wnck is rather broken for changing API in a patchlevel
release. i would vote for considering 2.6.2.1 to be 2.6.3, unless you want to
define an extra macro, e.g., HEY_I_AM_BROKEN.
and our version checking
macros don't support four-part version numbers. Any advice on how
to proceed?
maybe doing extra checking with autoconf ?
the pkgconfig file has a "Version: 2.6.2.1" field.
ExtUtils::PkgConfig::modversion() should return 2.6.2.1 in that case.
