In a sense, yes.  A macro is bad when a GTK "feature" is no more
available after upgrading like in the case at hand.  When a feature is
added due to upgrading it will be automatically incorporated in the next
build.  Only when someone detects that upgrading GTK breaks something
else and his Emacs already uses the upgraded version, downgrading may
also break the build.

Still I think that people who upgrade GTK should rebuild Emacs right
away.  Chances are that an upgraded GTK breaks something not covered by
GTK_CHECK_VERSION as well.
