Yeah this is true.. the "hildonizing" code should have been written in a way that a normal app that was written for normal GTK would make the same function/library calls and would just receive the different "hildonized" environment...

but I think (haven't ported anything myself yet) some calls are missing in the Hildonized GTK.. meaning they needed to add some form of seamless 0 return or something to the missing functions so that the app doesn't completely die out.. but it may not work at it's 100%.
