"Stalling" is not the word I'd use...

OK - I don't have a snow-leopard box at present, but I *think* it was
still possible to build fltk2 if you build in 32-bit mode... Or I might
just be totally making that up... I guess Manolo or others would know
much better than me.

Well, I guess anything is "possible" but in this case not trivially so,
as the underlying design is quite a bit different.
Of course, a volunteer might well achieve great things with this...

Longer term, Matt's plan for fltk3 (the long-hoped-for un-forking merge
for fltk2 with fltk1.x) is, as I understand it anyway, to have a browser
widget somewhat like the fltk2 one, but dressed up with two API's so
that either fltk1 or fltk2 code might be compiled against it.
But we haven't written that yet!
