Since I run one of my machines without gtk+ (which makes for a good test)
I know that there are things in extras like easytag (since Extras hasn't
moved to the quite-stable-but-still-officially development 1.99.3 version),
plus outside things like mplayer.

The other, slightly nastier problem:  Several packages allow one to
build with either gtk+ or gtk2.  In Core, we're building with gtk2,
but these packages have to BuildRequire: gtk+-devel, which pulls in
the rest of the gtk+ stuff, in order to compile.  This is because the
various auto* scripts pull in gtk+ macros.  I *think* there are some
packages still like this in Core; I know I've run into it in the last
couple months, and have gotten used to pulling in gtk+ in order to
build, then removing it, when I want to rebuild a package.

There are also a couple other packages that incorrectly still
BuildRequire various gtk+ things even after having moved to gtk2,
but the gtk+ things are no longer needed.  w3m is a case of this;
it just moved to gtk2, but still BuildRequires imlib-devel instead
of imlib2-devel.  (I guess imlib2-devel is needed, haven't tested
trying to build without it installed, but it definitely builds with
imlib2-devel but not imlib-devel if I change the spec file.)
