Unison is an ocaml program. This means it doesn't directly use gtk, but
lablgtk (gtk binding in ocaml). The lablgtk for GTK1 is old and more
buggy than GTK1 itself (just a question of math: a binding contains all
the bug of what is bound and all his own bug ;-) 

For this reason, the ocaml maintainer decided to drop the lablgtk1
binding (unison2.9.1 was the last package depending on it, in fact).
I cannot go back to the former version !

Anyway, i hope unison will make his path to etch, so there won't be
anymore problem.

Kind regard
