If it is Gtk3 support you are after there are patches here...

We have tried to put the changes in #ifdefs, so it should still work fine with 
Gtk2 (use -f-gtk3 to build with Gtk2).

I am fairly happy with these patches now (Leksah is running fine with Gtk3).  
You sometimes have to change your code to get it to work with Gtk3, but most of 
the changes are as per the Gtk2 -> Gtk3 migration guide.  There will be a few 
new Gtk3 features that are not included yet.

Axel, what needs to be done before we could merge these into the main Gtk2Hs 
darcs repo?
