IMHO this discussion is about how to cope with different versions of two programs depending on each other, but being released in a loosely coupled way (this is a problem Xorg now has with their independent releases of Xorg modules). However, git-gui is released together with git (also in the foreseeable future, even if we use submodules some day). And therefore, a git user always will get installations of matching versions of git and git-gui; this is even true for developers who run "make install" in git source. So IMHO there is no version check needed at all in this case. Anybody who is installing git in strange partial ways should expect to be screwed.
