For #2, the answer is no. The reason for the separation is to force a rebuild of gtk+2 (and everything that depends on it) when somebody updates their OS. There are indeed differences in them, due the different g++ versions used to compile them. We wouldn't have this separation if it weren't absolutely necessary. -- Alexander K.
