I have some screengrabs cued if the pan2-user list moderator
would allow the (long) message to come on thru for posting.

There's only the /usr/local tree where gtk/glib/etc. are installed here.
No other copies anywhere.
For ref my build tree shows these:

There's no way pan2 is written to use the native Mac libs, it'd be a
totally different critter that way.  ;)

Also I do not have the GTK-on-OSX project installed here either,
but I'd sure like to participate in testing it, too, but for now
it'd only mix things up too much...

Thanks for any help & verification.  I'm hoping we can keep things
from going haywire too much when they update those components.
