gimp-2.0.1 fails to compile

Mike Mandel said that downgrading to -O2 fixed his problem. He's using the old
gtk+2 (gtk+ 2.2).
Chad Kittel said that his works fine at -O3. I believe he's using the new gtk+2
(gtk+ 2.4), but he hasn't responded to that yet.

So based on that info I was saying that the gimp module should only downgrade
CFLAGS to -O2 if -O3 is present /if/ gtk+2 is less than v2.4, that way those
with an updated system (assuming that Chad has the new gtk+2) can use -O3.
