PGTK isn't supported under the X Window system. The reason is a
combination of GTK being a very lousy toolkit and us not wanting to
maintain code that only runs under the GDK X11 backend when there is
working code in the regular X builds.

We'd rather not. You really shouldn't be running the PGTK build under
an X server.
