I clued in that this was the case myself a few weeks back.=20

I just put in a check in org.gnome.glib.Plumbing's static block to make
sure Gtk.init() has been called, and to crash out if it hasn't been.
This is a bit thuggish, but it'll do for now until (and unless) we
implement this differently [it's fine the way it is; there's more to it
than just moving the System.loadLibrary()]

Anyway, people who forget to initialize GTK will no longer get the
confusing stack trace about GtkCalendar or whatever.

[Note that the bug about over-jealous class loading is still extant]
