Oh well, just compiled the 1.3.10 developer version.

It compiles only against gtk2, and works almost perfect with unicode
hebrew, eventhough I couldn't get it to render stylish designer ttf
hebrew fonts for some reason. But it accepts the standard ttf's copied
form windows ;)

Anyway, it's really neat and pretty stable, lots of imporvements. It
builds along side 1.2.x gimp and lets you keep the stable one running as
usual,  so you should check it out.
