This seems to be absent in gtk+-3.x, so it must be a gtk+-2.x-only thing. And gtk+-4.x removes the divide between gtk and gdk. Also, one of the functions from gdk/gdkprivate.h is gdk_window_destroy_notify(), which is used by gtk2 code, so if gtk and applications are equal in their gdk access, this seems OK. Also, gdk/x11/gdkx.h (seems to be the main X11 backend header) includes gdkprivate.h. Either way, i doubt that anyone wants to rearrange headers in gtk+-2.x. As long as everything works. -- O< ascii ribbon - stop html email! - www.asciiribbon.org
