Murray was very helpful to point out that #defining things like
GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED will cause your code to break if you try to use a
deprecated API. Excellent.

I got to work on a branch to get going along these lines and made a bit
of progress. Notably, I added the appropriate flags to the gcc compiler
line so that the build will fail when it hits something that we
shouldn't be including.

If you want to chip in, a branch is up at
http://research.operationaldynamics.com/bzr/java-gnome/hackers/andrew/deprecated
I won't be working on it again any time soon, so feel free to take it
from here.

[If you're going to hack away at this further I'd suggest making sure
you're in #java-gnome to make sure you don't duplicate effort with
someone else]
