The GrowlVersionDetective was unable to fix the Google+Growl Google
Notifier plugin however looking at this app and what you wrote about
frameworks I did the following which allows the Google+Growl plugin to
work so that Google Notifier is now compat with Growl 1.3:
1. quit the Google Notifier app
2. download and extract GrowlVersionDetective.app
3. in a terminal window cd into the path where the app above was
extracted which for me was /Users/willf/Downloads/Growl Version
Detective.app/Contents/Frameworks/Growl.framework/Versions/A
4. cp Growl /tmp/Growl-WithInstaller
5. cd /Users/willf/Library/Application Support/Google Notifier/
GoogleGrowl.plugin/Contents/Frameworks/Growl-WithInstaller.framework/
Versions/A
6. cp Growl\-WithInstaller Growl\-WithInstaller.orig
7. cp /tmp/Growl-WithInstaller .
8. start Google Notifier

GN with the G+G plugin appears to work fine with Growl 1.3 now.
