Before I do this, should there not be some conditional define to select the GTK/GDK version ?

Initially there was no defined for gdk symbols in the fpc package but there was for gtk. I followed that rule (since it is not mine package) and added defines only for gtk. But as we considered before (some lazarus and fp devels) minimal fpc/lazarus gtk/gdk requirement is 2.6 version. So there was no need for that conditions even in gtk bindings (thats why Ales has been surprised thought they can not harm). And as I understand if symbol is not used in the program it will not be included in the resulting executable. So in theory we can include even the most recent gtk/gdk symbols without any harm to applications. But in order to protect devels from ocasional usage of symbols from higher versions (2.8+) Ales creates gtkext package.

OK. I'll apply the patch then. Thanks for the explanation.
