Hey Vasant,

the best I can recommend is that you upgrade to Gtk 2.10. Although
Midori supports Gtk 2.6 up to version 0.1.0, current git doesn't
anymore, simply because WebKit hasn't supported anything below Gtk 2.10
for quite a while and nobody apparently was interested in fixing it. By
now I actually think Gtk 2.10 shouldn't be a problem. Otherwise you
would have to figure out how to fix it.

ciao,
    Christian
