Some questions regarding GTK2 migration

[Jasper Huijsmans]

Ok, I'll resend this. Apparently it didn't arrive last night.


All right, I put new xfrun and xfmouse versions in CVS under
xfce-devel. They are not completely finished products, but they work
as intended for me. Missing are for example i18n stuff, autoconf files
and probably a lot more.

If I find time I will start looking at other small utilities that I
might understand (xfbd possibly, although I don't know anything about
graphics handling... yet).

Comments and corrections are apreciated, of course.
