I've put it to default to gtk3.
Well gtk2 might be on it's way out but what I am thinking of is how it
integrates with the desktop environment that people are using.
I can't find any usable themes to gtk3 in pkgsrc. The only desktop that
I know of that has good gtk3 theming is gnome3 and I don't think pkgsrc
have it. Then I use gtk3 apps they look different to the other apps.
One problem I have come across with having gtk options is that
the dependency of one plugin must be compiled with the same gtk
toolkit as abiword or it is disabled.
