I give shit on msoffice but GTK+ is the GIMP ToolKit and we will have
a hard time to explain why even it's major release numbers diverge.

You obviously didn't look at the code. Frankly, the libgimp API hasn't
changed much but that's probably a good thing t'since it means that it
is easy to migrate plug-ins and scripts. Apart from libgimp and some
basic core functionality, the whole thing has been completely
rewritten.
