i'll give it a second look, but i don't believe there's any way to avoid 
this.  gtkicontheme{,parser} make private gtk calls, and there's not 
much i can do about it.  if it's compiled against gtk 2.4, the code is 
left out, so it's not an issue.  since 2.4 will be out soon, 2.2 will 
only get maintenance releases, so i wouldn't expect those private calls 
to change (in fact, those private interfaces are there up to gtk 2.3.4).
