Note to self, avoid "quick glances", especially if you're blind anyway :-).

The envy24control source directory contains an alternative configure.in
file for GTK2, simply doing:

$ mv configure.in-gtk2 configure.in
$ autoreconf
$ ./configure
$ make

Generates a GTK2 executable! Yay, now I only can't try how it
works since I don't have such a card yet, but it looks promising.
