mmm... I was going to spend this weekend sorting out the OSX issues
with the native glib build, the gcc 4.0 requirement means we can't use
the cloog/ppl optimisations (until gcc4.6).

Strange that they're doing a release (even) with a dev (odd glib) again.

builds fine here (Ubuntu)

AFAIK, some of these were submitted upstream already.

Clearly not accepted/applied yet, there's no patch errors (and glib
builds fine).

Nice, I wasn't game to touch it, but gtk needs some attention;
pkg-config is missing some libs and the size of the test programs
causes some concern:

test-qt.exe 11M
test-gtk.exe 29M
test-gtkmm.exe 73M

Shall do, I don't have a windows available to test at the moment, but
gtk/glib are building successfully. Some dependents are failing, first
is the gtkglext test program:

The librsvg test program is having similar linking problems, I'll do
further testing tomorrow.
