I can fix the glib2 issues easily. I know what they are - and have them
fixed on one of my laptops. In fact, I'd put them in now, if I knew how

Unfortunately, RHEL 6.2 is still what most people are running :-(. I
think using SuSE's resources like Dejan suggested makes more sense than
trying to reinvent everything ourselves.
