Bug#762435: emacs24: Warning message from GLib-GObject

Full log
Message #25 received at 18674-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
Hello.
This is fixed in trunk. We have one deprecated call left,
gtk_widget_set_double_buffered.
We can't get rid of that without adding Gtk rendering (i.e. Cairo) and only
rendering in callbacks, that is on expose events. This is a major job.
