Definitely it is strange to use the STDERR instead of STDOUT, and after
seen what happened in this case,  I inmediately change it in the new
script I' m writing.

You are right, but in this case are suppressed only the errors from gtk
1.x.x, and probably if the gtk install is seriously broken your computer
will show more problems...

In my installation as well

Xdialog developper assumes that gtk installation MUST be 100 %  ok on
each computer, for this reason he doesn' t care about dependencies.

Definetely it isn' t

Let's wait for news.
