Yep, it's ok for me. However, could you document this somewhere in
your doc? I'm not sure to remember this next time a Gentoo user will
have an issue. :-)

Well, there is still a minor annoyance for the user as the client
should be launched with a specific option (--exception or something
like that). Moreover the client should be launched from a terminal and
some environment variable be set. Well, maybe a wrapper script would
be useful (demexp-gtk2-client-debug or something like that).

Yours,
