Not before Emacs 29 is released, or otherwise the GTK developers will
never fix their thing, and we will be stuck maintaining yet another
broken hack to work around one of their bugs until the end of time,
which is several degrees of magnitude more confusing because we now have
two configurations where sometimes identical, and sometimes different
GTK bugs have to be worked around.
