Abiword sucked in gtk_combo_box from GAL without changing the name. 
GTK+ 2.3.x contains an actual gtk_combo_box with a different API.  This
is why arbitrary third party widgets should *NEVER* be in the gtk_
namespace.

I started working on fixing this last night and didn't have a chance to
finish it.

That's the plan.  But with finite time and freezes, I have to have a
priority queue.  Which right now meant that the best solution for the
short-term was to drop the abiword package and keep working on it as I
have spare cycles.

I wouldn't say "NOT NORMAL" since the configure check in abiword-plugins
finds librsvg2 and uses it when it can.
