blocking status requested because it's just so ugly ;-)

Reporter: do you know if you are using a build of mozilla that is using gtk1 or 
gtk2? (please comment back here)

IF you are using gtk1 then this is a duplicate of bug 261959.

if components/compreg.dat entry  
@mozilla.org/widget/toolkit/gtk;1,{2d96b3e0-c051-11d1-a827-0040959a28c9} 
does mean this is gtk1, then you're right.

Looking at my current builds (gtk1 & gtk2), I think this is true. Therefore I'll
mark this as duplicate of bug 261959.

Another way to find out is to type about:buildconfig in the address bar, and if
"--enable-default-toolkit=gtk2" is present in the configure arguments, then it's
a gtk2 build if not, it's gtk1 (I've only just found that out).

If it turns out that you do have a gtk2 build, please reopen this bug.
