gtk+ uses pango to render fonts. there's no way to prevent this. if
you're running with the newest stuff and are getting a seg fault then
that's probably a bug that the gtk+/pango people would want to know
about. (provided your setup isn't the problem)

change:
        use Gtk2 '-init';
to
        use Gtk;
        Gtk->init;

and replace Gtk2 with Gtk everywhere. then fix any errors that happen
because of the differences between the two. that script is simple enough
(not really using anything that changed much between Gtk and Gtk2 that
it won't require many changes.)
