If you want to try the GTK+ 2.0 version of Pan without privileges you 
can get it as part of the "garnome" GNOME 2 test-drive kit, 
http://www.gnome.org/~jdub/garnome/

It will require a fast link to download all the components and quite a 
bit of disk space to build as well.

If you just want Pan change this instruction given at the link above:

        cd meta/gnome-desktop/
        make install

to:

        cd gnome/pan/
        make install

It will still have to download and build lots of libraries, but it will 
take much less space and download time than building the entire 
gnome-desktop.

If you want GTK+ 2.0 themes you will also want to install 
gnome/gnome-themes/ and possibly a couple of other directories named 
gnome/*-theme/

By default it installs everything in ~/garnome, so you don't need 
privileges to install it.

The most recent release of garnome will always build a version of Pan 
that is several weeks old, but it's not too hard to hack to make it 
build 0.13.3 instead, if that's what you want.

Good luck,
