I did not try to compile the lablgtk2 branch for a long time. 
It is possible that the recent lablgtk2 snapshot include some incompatible
changes.

We should use the latest source snapshot from the lablgtk page.

I know headache (in fact i helped vincent for the name, he's just
on the office near mine). I use headache in my new developments, but
i did not took the time to "upgrade" the old ones. Thanks for doing this ;-)

Yes, definitely. I use "TODO" or "A VOIR" strings in comments so a grep
"TODO" or "A VOIR" show me the things to be done. There is also a TODO
file at the root. And of course a ChangeLog for all changes, and a
Changes.txt file for functional changes (that's the changes that are
given for the next release).

By now, i'm not on it. I made some changes in the main trunk (the one
with lablgtk 1) but not on zoggy.
You can work on zoggy and the other tools in the lablgtk2 branch.
but for the other tools, only the graphical interface should be changed,
orelse the merge will be a nightmaer if we had functionalities in both
branches...
