I don't use the incubator for much, only the DateTimePicker (oh, why
is this not in GWT?!) and SliderBar (which uses Gen2CssInjector). I
didn't see the com.google.gwt.gen2.commonwidget.client.DecoratorPanel
error described when compiling my project, but I did see an error on
ClientConsoleLogHandlerImpl.Popup. I fixed this by adding <when-
property-is name="user.agent" value="ie9" /> to the relevant portion
of com.google.gwt.gen2.logging.CoreLogging.gwt.xml

Although there is a lot to grok in the incubator, rebuilding it has
been straight forward. Check out incubator and gwt-tools, set
GWT_TOOLS and GWT_HOME, and let 'er rip:

$ ant
Buildfile: /home/thad/gwt-devel/gwt-incubator-20110310-r1773/build.xml

checksetup:
     [echo] gwt.home = /opt/gwt-2.3.0
     [echo] gwt.tools = /home/thad/gwt-devel/gwt-tools
     [echo] gwt.platform = linux

compile:
    [mkdir] Created dir: /home/thad/gwt-devel/gwt-incubator-20110310-
r1773/build/bin
     [echo] Compiling source...
[gwt.javac] /home/thad/gwt-devel/gwt-incubator-20110310-r1773/

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 8 seconds

Another change:  I don't use the incubator's logging, and got tired of
Eclipse warning me that I should include the RemoteLoggingServiceImpl
servlet in my web.xml. So I commented out that servlet from
com.google.gwt.gen2.logging.handler.LogHandler.gwt.xml and
com.google.gwt.libideas.Logging.gwt.xml

I've dubbed my new jar gwt-incubator-r1773.jar.  For what I use it
for, it seems fine.
