Yes, I agree with you.

Maybe both. I had trouble with the same and it seems that (const char *) has a 
different data alignment than a (char *). Which means that even if you cast 
it as a (const char *), if you actually use it as a (char *) for modifying 
the contents (easy way to toggle colors, for example), gdkpixbuf will croak 
when you try to make a pixmap with it. I suppose that if you do not modify 
the xpm structure, then the compiler treats it as a (const char *) and 
therefore the cast works ok. 

If you modify a xpm, then the easy way (hack) to make it work for a pixmap 
creation is to write it back to disk and read it again. This aligns the data 
the way a (const char*) proper. There should be another way but I ran out of 
my timelimit while looking for the way to align as (const char *), which 
might not even be portable.

The ldopen stuff is a most necesary. By using it nautilus has shrunk to twice 
the size of xftree and konqueror 2.99rc3 is only 3260 bytes (probably 
overkill, though).
