Before we move this discussion to gtk2hs-devel at lists.sourceforge.net ,  
I'd like to confirm that this is our problem.

- what version of Gtk+ do you have? (run "pkg-config --modversion gtk 
+-2.0")

- are the functions that cannot be linked to part of Gtk+ or of the  
Haskell gtk package (i.e. send us some of the error messages  
containing the function names)

- what ghc are you using ("ghc --version")

I suspect that the Gtk+ libraries and ghc do not agree on the  
architecture.

Cheers,
Axel
