I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask the question directly to the GTK people, as to
how they meant people to handle the DEPRECATE_... thing, they've introduced.

But then again, I'm quite confident that lots of people are running into the same
issue. So, there's probably already a standard solution. Let me see if I can chase it
up.

By the way, I doubt they'll do it again after what they will be going through, with
gazillions of developers depending on them, now in trouble ... :-)
