Dead horses... to recap: GTK+ 1.3 has been the development version,
with heavy changes between releases. The ABI has *not* been
fixed.
After 2.0, the ABI *will* be fixed even as new micro version numbered
releases come out. Both GTK_MICRO_VERSION *and* GTK_BINARY_AGE will
increase, and the DLL name will thus stay the same.
(The DLL as generated by Makefile.am and libtool uses LT_CURRENT -
LT_AGE as suffix, which expands to GTK_MICRO_VERSION - GTK_BINARY_AGE.)
At least, this is how I understand it. Comments, anyone?
