this brings one (hertical) questions up to my mind:
why are there to two backends (art and xlib-only) for x11 and not just
art? It seems to me that art has no further dependencies so making
it a requirement for gnustep shouldn't be a problem?

btw: i applied the image loading patches and they're working fine. the
drawback is that i need gif support in WebKit (many images on the web
are still gifs :-(), so i have to sit down again and write a gif-loader.

ciao
