Sorry, I meant to reply about this sooner, but was waiting until I had
a chance to evaluate the newer version.
Unfortunately, I haven't had time to do the evaluation, but I figured
I should reply anyway.

Between GTK+ 2.20.0 and 2.24.10 (which just came out a couple weeks
ago), there were a number of showstopper type of breakages that
prevented us from upgrading without major breakage.
2.24.10 is supposed to be as functional as 2.16.6 was, but I haven't
been able to validate that.

I'll try to make time to get to testing that, but I wouldn't hold up
the release if everything else is ready.
