I have added comments to these two.

Please note that I can only commit changes to trunk (and then merge them
to the gtk-2-14 branch). There's no point in applying changes to the
gtk-2-12 branch as that branch is obsolete.

Currently it appears that neither gtk-2-14 nor gtk+ trunk compile if the
DirectFB backend is selected. We need to address this before anything
else. So is there a patch that deals with the internal API changes so
that the tree can at least be compiled again? That would be the first
patch that gets committed.

The GTK+ development process requires bug reports to be opened in the
GNOME bug tracker before a change can be made in the gtk+ tree. Please
do that if you want those changes to be applied upstream.
