I see option 3 has been applied, but the attached patchlet reverts it and
implements option 2.  I've chosen an explicit version check in xfns.c;
I suppose a configure-time check for either the gtk version or the
specific function could work too.
I guess it depends on whether the plan is to include more gtk 2.2+
functionality or not - as it stands, this patch allows emacs to use GTK
on not-so-cutting-edge Linux machines (e.g. RedHat pre-9.0).
