This should pretty much finish off the GTK_CHECK_VERSION calls in Pidgin. I still need to check if I should be upping the requirements for pango and any other libs. Refs #10024.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the
HOWTOs in the "Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
