Neither -- it's intentional... the idea is, that if we don't change or
add any interfaces, modules should be installed in the same place, so
that packages that install GTK+ modules don't need to be rebuilt.

If you are installing GTK+ modules, you should use:

 pkg-config --variable=gtk_binary_version gtk+-2.0

To find out where to install them. Similarly, there is:

 pkg-config --variable=pango_module_version pango

To find out where Pango modules go.
