slgtk fails to build with gtk 2.18

Hi Michael,

I'm the new Debian maintainer of slgtk, because Rafael left the Debian
project.

The current version of slgtk does not build with gtk 2.18, because the
definition of sl_gtk_widget_get_allocation gets generated and conflicts
with the definition in slgtk.c:

slgtk.c:194: error: conflicting types for 'sl_gtk_widget_get_allocation'
gtk_glue.c:41095: note: previous definition of 'sl_gtk_widget_get_allocation' was here

http://people.debian.org/~lucas/logs/2009/10/05/slgtk_0.7.5-2_lsid64.buildlog

I've used the attatched (dirty) patch to fix it.

There's also a bug in gtkplot.c:

gtkextra/gtkplot.c: In function 'index_ticks':
gtkextra/gtkplot.c:3582: warning: value computed is not used
gtkextra/gtkplot.c:3584: warning: value computed is not used

The expression *x++ is not (*x)++, but *x; x++. The postfix operator is a
higher order operator than the dereference operator. I prefer to use the
prefix opterator, because ++*x and *++x are more clear.

More compiler warning:

gtkextra/gtkplotgdk.c:364: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 3 of 'gdk_gc_set_dashes' differ in signedness

You may also add one or more of these gcc flags to get more warnings,
i.e. points of possible bugs:

  -Wformat=2 -Wunused -Wundef -Wextra -Wswitch-enum -Wshadow -Wpointer-arith
  -Wcast-qual -Wcast-align -Wwrite-strings -Wconversion -Wbad-function-cast
  -Wnested-externs

Bye, Jörg.
