It is defined in gtk2int.pas and seems to to be the parent widget for gtk2
widgets, except it's a LOT shorter than the TGTKWidget definition in
gtkint.pas (this was where I had to add the procedure definition for
setWidgetFont), and it doesn't seem to be derived,
I have not found any reference to PGTK2Widget however leading me to presume it
doesn't exist, the procedure reference right now uses PGTKWidget since that
is what I got from Darek's patch, but I am fairly certain that it DOES need
to change to be a pointer to a TGK2Widget, I am still trying to figure out
where to DO that though, it is not impossible that defining PGTK2Widget and
making whatever changes is needed to allow SetWidgetFont calls under GTK2 to
pass the right type will solve the problem entirely - of course a GTK2 only
method won't exist if we are using a GTK1 class definition to refer to the
widget objects in calls.
