           Summary: Setting GTK_PATH is harmful

/etc/osso-af-init/osso-gtk.defs has the following line
export GTK_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0

For gtk+ 2.6 that is basically a no-op since the builtin search path includes
that directory anyway.

For gtk+ 2.10 that is actually harmful as it is instructing gtk+ to load modules
with incompatible ABI.

As setting GTK_PATH is causing problems and there is no visible benefit or
rationale, it should be removed.
