This is okay. It'll just disable some methods in gtk--.

oh, this is because 2.7.2. doesnt understand completely valid syntax for
templates to define the body outside the class... The fix is to move
the implementations inside the template class(==inline) for 2.7.2.
(I think we should do that anyway, it works on more compilers :)
I fixed this to cvs tree. (I wonder how many other places like this
there exists already :)
