I don't care much what other people do or say.  But good arguments may
convince me;)

Anyway, currently I have a strange problem, I cannot rebuild gtk2 on
the same machine where I compiled it two days before.  The only thing
I changed was to update gcc, i.e. getting an error now when linking
gdk-pixbuf because the generated .def file seems to be broken.

I'll need to investigate if it works ok with the previous gcc or
whatever the reason is.  I think I'll try to build without the .def
file as well to see how it works.
