Emmanuele recently made a bold start and pointed out a glitch
in his own code, now it is my turn to point out an issue that
has sneaked into the GtkAboutDialog api in GTK+ 2.10:

GtkAboutDialog has a property "name", which conflicts with
the unrelated "name" property on its base class GtkWidget.

This is certainly going to cause problems for a number of
language bindings. One solution that has been proposed is
to deprecated the "name" property in GtkAboutDialog and
replace it by a new "program-name" property in 2.12.

See  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345822
for details.
