Yes, i know this patch adds comlexity to gtk+ 2.8.20, which is growing 
to be a complicated hairball..

thanks for patching: i built an iso [1] and it looks like leakage is now 
small during normal questions display and still noticeable during 
progressbar runs.
I'd like someone else than me (Frans?) give this iso a objective test 
and report if he thinks the leakage is now reduced.
By my side, i'll investigate why we still leak when a progressbar is run 
(this puzzles me, as the progressbar is never destroyed, just hidden).
