Because my task was to embed Mozilla in a Motif based application.
Motif is based on Xt.

Is gtkEmbed the only part of Mozilla that depends on GTK?
It was my impression that this was not the case. If it is possible to
embed Mozilla directly in an Xt widget, then that would certainly be
preferable in my case.

Before I attempted to do so, I did extensive web and newsgroup searches
and noticed two things. First, there were no source code available.
Second, whenever this issues was being raised, the unanimous reply was
that it was hard (yours reply being the exception). The latter was also
my experience, although it might be attributed to my lack of knowledge
about GTK.
