Ok, fixed in r49848 [1], Reinhard can you revert previous patch and test new one?

Current code is broken for all pango <= fb097dd671439d53dfc26f73f70c7aa8c8918304 [bisected] (i.e. before pango-1.20)

We still support gtk+-2.12, which is the last version which support broken pangos, gtk+-2.14 already requires pango 1.20

I think it won't affect lot of users, still... wireshark-1.10.1 ? Have we fixed any other "interesting" bugs?
