Ooops, should've looked a little bit at least, indeed it seems to be
with newer gtk. Apparently I've compiled mine with
GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED, and I see the definition of this function
wrapped by a #ifndef GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED in gtk/gtknotebook.h

I guess is trivial to solve this, I'll write a patch when I get back
from work tonight in case no one here does it before.

Cheers,

Empathy uses Telepathy for protocol support and has an user interface based on Gossip. Empathy is the default chat client in current versions of GNOME, making it easier for other GNOME applications to integrate collaboration functionality using Telepathy.
