Building ports isn't a problem, however I don't understand how 
particular apps can work with Wayland. I thought that they would need to 
run inside Weston or some other compositor, which in turn runs on 
Wayland? Is the X server in that configuration running as a Wayland 
client with with the GTK3 apps running outside of the X server (i.e. are 
managed by the compositor directly)?
