I'd like to fully understand the issue, please can you be a little bit
more specific: ;-)

a) what's the specific problem, what can "be bad"

b) what's the best practice to solve this issue? Compiling gthumb
against gtk3? What if there isn't a full gtk3 port yet? ...

Use the wrong version of the symbols, and therefore crash, etc. It's
avoided in apps by having them abort on start if they're linked against
both versions; in plugins it's a bit murkier.

1) port gthumb to gtk3
2) disable the brasero plugin
3) figure out if the plugin and brasero libs actually need GTK... if not, take 
them out of the link

There may be other solutions.

I have temporarily disabled the brasero plugin and created a new RAWHIDE

Additionally I've created a bug report upstream for porting gthumb to
GTK+3 (including a description of the mixed linkage issue).
