Ah, I thought this was a workaround for bug 2325. But it seems that this bug is GTK+ related and not Glib related. I think bug 2325 should be solved for the big one-oh release, which I think means going back on the GTK+ release. I know we need GTK+2.12.6 to fix
bug 2066. Are there any other GTK+/Glib issues present that need
te be taken into account in choosing the optimum GTK+/Glib release?


Bug  2325
Desc 'Edit Preferences -> Protocols' does not accept more than one character anymore
Sol  Use GTK+2.12.6 ???



FWIW: This GTK bug may soon get a fix ...

From the gnome bug report on this....

  Daniel prodded me in irc just now, so I'll do this today.  I didn't
  have a
  Win32 setup to test on when I was in Berlin so I just put this off
  last week,
  sorry about that.


Even so, I'll guess a GTK release with the fix won't appear right away (especially since there's just been a gtk release) so falling back to Windows gtk 2.12.6 (I believe -2 on Windows) may very well be the right answer.
