I don't see the advantage of this patch. Especially with this ugly ifdef
for the program-name bug, I decided to not apply it. Especially the
license crap is not worth doing it. There is no need that the UI shows
the license in the about dialog.

You can still fill in the code for the URL and email hooks to make the
actually work. I didn't bother so far, because the default screen thing
seem to be wrong. You should use the screen where the actual about
dialog is present. However I am not so deep into GDK to tell what is the
correct way here.

Regards

Marcel
