I think what he suggests is to use USE flags for gtk2,  and if not, 
completely and abhorrently ignore the DEPEND data for gtk+-1.x,  (since
the engines won't work without it, we don't break anything) and simply
do an :
if [ -f /usr/include/gdk_imlib.h ]; then...
   if [ -f  /usr/include/gtk-1.2/gdk/gdk.h ];
   ....  here we do buildstuff ....

fi fi

 ugly, bastardly, broken.  but sort of works in most cases.
