Either we need to stop it reading the one in the user's home-directory,
perhaps looking at how GTK is built, or we might need to over-ride with
our own, since I expect the user's ~/.gtkrc-2.0 will be loaded after any
one in $prefix/etc/...

The command to parse an RC file is: gtk_rc_parse (filename);

There are equivalents to parse literal strings.

But.. I'm really not sure how you undo changes made by another gtkrc
file.
