Which we'll have to do *anyway* because we're taking advantage of little 
things like g_strdup() which are a significant (IMHO) opinion on writing all 
of those yourself.

Furthermore, since we *are* using GLib extensively, we should use GLib types 
anywhere where we're going to pass stuff into GLib. Fair enough, *at the 
moment* it's a sensible assumption that (float === gfloat), but that isn't 
necessarily guaranteed to be the case.

I do want to PURGE Gtk/Gdk from libgeda, though. There really is no good 
reason for us having to link libgeda against it. *scowl* The Gtk headers are 
a heck of a lot larger than the GLib ones! This actually irritates me enough 
that I might do something about it.
