On a hypothetical level... could this all be simplified by attacking it
from a makefile level ?

One could use gcc dependancy output to find out what widgets are required
by other widgets... and then build gtk+ without building the objects listed
in the widgets.exclude file or something similar (./configure --exclude-list=... ?)

#ifdef'ing it into the source does feel a little stiff... anyway, thats
just my pie-in-the-sky 2 cent idea...

Cheers all,
