The version of GTK+ in unstable is 2.4, I suspect that 2.4 contains
quite a bit not in 2.0 which Gnome 2.6 needs.

I don't know if GTK 2.4 is backwards compatible, if it isn't then it
will cause problems, otherwise you need to get the libgtk2.4 from
unstable.

Really, to use new software on woody, its probably best to use the
backports.
