libgtk++ is one of a few 'moving targets' that debian can't keep up with. Another is wine. Also VDK and gEDA. So I have been downloading sources from their home sites and building my own in /usr/local/src. This works but you must include /usr/local in your path. Also add /usr/local/lib to your /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig after building the libraries. You could also download the source from unstable and then use dpkg-source -x and dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc to build your own .deb's under your current version of libc. Only problem is I think that when you DO upgrade to potato dselect won't grab the latest versions of the packages you built since it will think they are the same version and then you will still have the versions built against the older libc. You of course could un-install and re-install the packages.
