GTK+-1.2 is no longer supported by the GTK+ team. You should start
working on migrating immediately.

It's unlikely we'll remove GTK+-1.2 from Red Hat Enterprise Linux or
Fedora for another year or so, though we are trying hard to get
rid of all GTK+-1.2 applications we ship.

Well, we still have a versions of GTK+ from 1997 (0.99 and earlier)
on ftp.gtk.org. So, v1.2 will be there for the forseeable future. 
But that doesn't imply that we are supporting it any more, and in
fact, the tarball as distributed won't even compile on many modern
systems without updating the build tools.
