Oh yeah nearly forgot to say this... To please the Win32 folks you may
just port the absolutely essential code.
Even though most of the GTK+ 1.2 API has been deprecated in 2.0, GtkCList
and all the other old widgets are still there for backwards compatibility.
Just not as well maintained. But they do work.

In short: port the GdkImlib bits to GdkPixbuf and the code probably will
mostly compile in GTK+ 2.0 as is.
