gtk-- is definately older and as such more mature, plus from what I've
seen the API is much saner then vdk

another possibility is to just use the C api from C++ directly ...

however ... given the experience I've had with C++ I'd recommend against
switching ... how about Objective C if you want to use a C with objective
syntax .. (there are gtk/gnome bindings of course)
