You can even get Gimp to compile in OS X, if you very carefully install
the GTK+ libraries. I mean OS X, not X running on OS X.

Honestly, I have no idea but, according to Geoffrey, if you must add a
library, it's because OS X is incomplete :)

With my iBook 600 MHz G3 with 640 MB RAM, I could happily watch most
Youtube stuff until a couple of years or so ago, but in the last 18
months the experience just got worse and worse. Some more recent videos
won't play satisfactorily even when downloaded first.
