Please add this bug to bugzilla if you haven't already. It's pretty
serious, after all.

However, the 'Gdk warning' bit suggests that it isn't a problem in
AbiWord code. It may be a bug in the Gtk toolkit, or a failure of
backwards compatibility.

Could someone with this problem download the sources and build Abi for
themselves? If the problem is linking against the wrong set of
libraries, that should fix it, or at least produce a clearer error
message.

(And if I'm completely off the mark, that should at least prompt the
developers to leap in and say so.)
