Well, I installed gtk 2.16.6 into /opt/gtk, then exported my
LD_CONFIG_PATH to there before compiling gimp (and also added to
PKG_CONFIG_PATH), so hopefully I've sidestepped that.  If I'm headed
for trouble with this approach, someone please let me know :)

It seems to be working OK, but it's not picking up the current GTK
settings/devices (like tablet).  I think this method will work well
enough for testing purposes though, and my stock 2.6.6 install seems
to be working just fine.

Thanks,
Chris
