patch to use deprecated functions that the comment right above them says
not to use?

complete portfile)?
Ryan, the patch about the deprecated feature in glib is for a different
issue: the current pango installs a header file that uses a deprecated
symbol (G_CONST_RETURN) which is disabled in the current glib by default.
Therefore at least two packages fail to build (poppler and gconf). So the
patch tweaks the glib header gmacros.h in order to let those troubled
packages build successfully. It is a "nasty hack" by all means and has
nothing to do with the Portfile for atk-2.2 in this ticket.
Perhaps somebody should file/find a bug for gconf and/or poppler and put
the findings there (I won't).
