Fair enough, I don't want to cause any extra work for the Gnome herd.

I'll leave it in dev.g.o/~tad/overlay for the time being.  I have added
a warning on dev.g.o that is visible when people browse to the ebuild
directory.

When (if) this theme shows better stability then it may be a candidate
for inclusion, for the time being, those that so desire can grab the
ebuild and use it at their own risk. (I don't think adding it to
package.mask is really appropriate either).

[ FWIW I haven't had any GTK2 applications crash whilst using this
theme, applications include: Evolution, Gaim, Multisync & XChat-2 ]

Troy Dack		Gentoo moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and
tad@g.o		look around once in awhile, you could miss out.
