This shouldn't cause breakage, but the library numbers should have been
bumped.  There has been a lot of "Upgrade to 1.2.2 to fix that" traffic
on the gtk and gnome mailing lists, and some of the newer GNOME packages
need 1.2.2 to work properly it seems.

I missed my last window and I'm pretty busy at the moment.  I've got
changes and fixes for GLib and GTK+, but I've only got half way through
the changes for the number bump.  If someone can help it would be great.

While I'm here, a question:  The GNOME ports all explictly link against
libxpg4, which seems to provide support for non-western languages??  If
the gtk12 port automatically included this linking would it be a good or
bad thing?  The GNOME ports seem to work fine...

Regards,
 -Jeremy
