 Sorry. Yesterday I haven't had any time to commit it.
 I have send the working version to Andy a while ago, but there's IMHO still an open issue:
 Where's the right place for libggi2d and the other extensions?
 Some time ago we decided to put all extensions under /lib/libggi/extensions
 but this does not conform to the modularization of our tree, 
 because checking out libggi means also checking out _all_ other extensions (libggi3d, libgwt,...)
 My personal favorite would be /lib/libggi2d.

 What do you think?

 The working version fixes all this problems. 
 It's not a big problem for me that it didn't made into the release.
 Next time it will be, however...
