Even though it would be tempting to use some of the features that are
currently being added to GTK+ HEAD, it would probably be a bad idea to
target GTK+-2.8 for GIMP 2.4. GTK+ HEAD just introduced a dependency
on Cairo. Of course it would be nice to finally convert our display
drawing routines to a proper vector drawing library, but I think we
should better put this on the GIMP 2.6 milestone.

Let's rather try to get GIMP 2.4 out as soon as possible and have it
depend on GTK+ 2.6.
