[gaim-migrate @ 4363] gtk1.2 code in anything except the buddy list window is a bug. this patch from David Brigada (jsi): " This patch changes the mechanism in which Gaim changes the colors on tabs for typing notification, new message notification, etc.. The previous mechanism was causing the font to change (possible mix of gtk1.2 and gtk2.0 code). Instead of loading the label's preferences with gtk_widget_get_modifier_style(), changing the color (with a -> edit), and then saving the label's preferences with gtk_widget_modify_style(), it changes the color with gtk_widget_modify_fg(). This fixes the font problem on my computer. The GTK 2.0 API docs seem to suggest the use of gtk_widget_modify_fg() over gtk_widget_modify_style() when necessary." committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>
