Ok, just wanted to be clear that this wasn't "fixed" as in "bug should be
closed". :)

Well, I suggest 359114 should be treated as release-critical, and a removal
request should be filed for gtkhtml3.6 whether or not peacock has
transitioned yet.

There's more work to be done before gtkhtml3.6 can be dropped from etch, of
course, since gtk-sharp2 waits on gnome-panel, evolution-data-server, avahi,
and qt4-x11...
