 in other words, you have no real reason for punting this package ?

well, for me gtk+-1.2 and no intentions of upgrading it to version 2
from upstream is a valid reason, BUT it doesn't draw the graphics
correctly and seems broken with current mesa -- draws white artifacts.

punting a package because you disagree with the implementation is not a valid 
reason.  nor is an upstream who hasnt touched a package in ages.  there are 
plenty of packages in system which could be punted using this reasoning 
leaving Gentoo broken.

 BUT it doesn't draw the graphics correctly and seems broken with current
 mesa -- draws white artifacts. 

if the package doesnt function properly, that is a reason.  it runs fine for 
me, but i'm not interested in supporting the package.
