Since r2154 gnome-mplayer doesn't compile unless GTK+ 3 is present in the system.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Check out the SVN repository, latest revision at the time of writing can be 
used.
2. Run the configure script without having GTK+ 3 installed.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The expected output would be the one from a successful run in a system capable 
of building gnome-mplayer linking to the GTK+ 2 framework. The actual output is 
an error stating that no GTK+ 3 package was found.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I was running a 64-bit Arch Linux system.

Please provide any additional information below.

Would gnome-mplayer be able to be compiled and linked against GTK+ 2 in the 
near future or development will be centered in the 3rd version of the toolkit? 
It would be nice if it does, and in that case it may be useful to add a 
configure parameter (--with-gtk=X as gnome-terminal currently does for example) 
to be able to force which toolkit to use in case both are present.
