Great! What you could do even without asking Bram is set up a duplicate source
tree locally on your system and "mess" with that: for instance, if the
"official" source starts at ~/.build/vim/vim71/
cd ~/.build
mkdir -v vim-test
cp -av vim/vim71 vim-test
Then modify vim-test/vim71/src/gui_*.c and use the usual "make" procedures
(except from vim-test/vim71 instead of vim/vim71). Don't "make install" but
run the generated binary (if any ;-) ) from vim-test/vim71/src instead.
Then after testing (I can help you test on GTK2) submit the diffs to Bram. :-)
Best regards,
Tony.
