I got off my lazy arse and made a patch. I have no idea whether I did things correctly, I just downloaded the gimp- 1.1.32.tar.bz2 and gimp-1.2.0.tar.bz2 files, unpacked them, did diff -u -r gimp-1.1.32 gimp-1.2.0 >gimp-patch, then bzip2'd that. It's 534kb, and you can download it from http://nova.student.utwente.nl/tc/gimp-patch-1.1.32- 1.2.0.bz2 Merry Christmas, Lourens
