I have pushed the changes to the git master branches.

So we now have:
* glibmm-2.52 instead of glibmm-2.4
* cairomm-1.14 instead of cairomm-1.0
* pangomm-2.42 instead of pangomm-1.4
* atkmm-2.26 instead of atkmm-1.6
* gtkmm-3.0 instead of gtkmm-2.4

That is a bit of a mess, so I welcome alternative suggestions, though I
 guess this is how it must be.
