Yes, but gtk2 is not yet available, maybe as christmas present ?

None of these solution are clean. I decided to do it in an other way,
and go back to this idea when lablgtk2 is released.

BTW, jacques, will you continue naming it lablgtk, or add a 2 at the end

BTW2, gtk2 would mean a break of the api anyway, so wouldn't it be the
right time to enforce the -pack option in lablgtk ?
