Hi Ales -- my bad, I assumed that Ivan had used functions in 2.6 or under 
inside a check for GTK 2.6!

However, the recent file loading **is** completely disabled in GTK < 2.6.  I 
don't imagine it'll be too difficult to fix it to work in 2.6 -- 
g_file_set_contents() is a utility function, and it shouldn't take more than 
an explicit fopen(), fwrite(), fclose() to replace it.

Unfortunately I don't have time to do this right now.  Can you add Ivan as a 
developer on SF so that I can assign bugs to him?

If anyone who doesn't have CVS access comes up with a patch, e-mail it to me 
and I'll test & apply it ASAP.

Thanks,

Peter
