WL: gtk 2.14

[David Ranch]

DESCRIPTION: GTK2 is the primary GUI toolkit for Gnome-based applications

REASON: I was trying to compile up some various applications this weekend on
Centos 5.5 only to find that GTK2.12 or greater is required. Centos 5
only has gtk2.10 which is very old. There are more and more applications that are making GTK >= 2.14
a hard requirement (GnuCash, etc.) and as such, they are officially
dropping support for RHEL5/Centos5. There are even long standing Redhat
feature requests for this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=558788
I can add additional examples of projects dropping support because of this if you wish.

I made a similar request to the elrepo group but they felt this request goes against their charter and would better served by the IUS group: http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo-devel/2010-July/000263.html
