Hi all,

I tried to build my gtk2hs kit with --disable-deprecated, since I saw 
that the previous event hook functions I had been using such as 
onButtonPress had been deprecated and I have no reason to develop 
against the old interfaces.

However, it turns out that gtk2hs didn't build once I had configured 
with --disable-deprecated for two reasons (and I won't go into how long 
it took me to nail it down to this -- it's embarrassing):

  - FileSelection is omitted from Gtk when GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED is 
defined, which --disable-deprecated does (among others).
  - Same with Tooltips.

FileSelection apparently has been replaced with FileChooser and has a 
binding in gtk2hs, and it looks like Tooltips (plural) should be 
replaced with Tooltip (singular), but there is apparently no binding 
(yet?) for Tooltip.

My question, then, is twofold... what is the policy on 
--disable-deprecated (should I give up on it early), and does anyone 
have a binding of Tooltip hanging around, or is one already in there 
that I didn't see? I can easily make the deprecated modules in gtk2hs 
not be built with --disable-deprecated, but without a replacement for 
Tooltips it seems like a bad idea.
