[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/3] libgtk2: bump to version 2.20.1 and mark Gtk/DirectFB as broken

[Martin Banky]

Thomas,
     Do you have a config file that I can use to build libgtk2? I have
gtk2-engines converted to autotargets, and I need to test it, but I don't
know how to build an X server.

Thanks,

Martin
