I've checked in a change to the autoconf script so that, if --disable-wireshark 
wasn't specified:

        if *no* GUI toolkit was specified, use only GTK+ 3;

        if *both* GTK+ 2 *and* GTK+ 3 were specified, fail;

        otherwise, build with the toolkits that were specified.

We could instead, if no GUI toolkit was specified, use GTK+ 3 if it's 
available, otherwise use GTK+ 2, but the output of the scripts that check for 
versions of GTK+ is *REALLY* ugly, and potentially confusing, if the check 
fails (the failure message might make users think a fatal failure happened and 
report it, rather than something else, as the problem they're seeing).
