g-wrap 1.9.6 isn't high enough to get out of the glib1 dependency,  
and there have been some issues with the very recent 1.9.7. I didn't  
take on the maintainership of g-wrap because 1.3.4 works (as long as  
--disable-error-on-warning is used to build gnucash), and gnucash has  
switched to swig instead of g-wrap. Swig is only required for builds  
from svn -- builds from tarballs (gnucash 2.2 and higher) will need  
neither swig nor g-wrap.

I did have a package in tracker for g-wrap 1.9.6 several months ago,  
but bmaret figured out how to get 1.3.4 to work. If necessary, I  
could try the glib2 patch on 1.9.6 again if leopard presents a  
problem. I'm pretty sure 1.9.7 will be much harder to harmonize.
