Yeah: according to my tests, GCC get includes from /usr/local/include by
default, but it doesn't get libs from /usr/local/lib by default.

That's fine with me, but is anyone relying on gtk 2.0 on the cluster?
Probably not, but I'm CCing to ipaq@handhelds.org to give people a chance
to comment. If nobody objects by the end of Wednesday, I'll install gtk
2.2 in /usr on the iPAQs.
