Most of  those applications are replaced, e.g. xmms2 for xmms, putty(svn)
for putty 0.60, since it's already done by some other distributions, I think
it's quite safe to retire gtk 1.2 completely from fedora. Also, considering
fedora is a bleeding-edge distribution, keeping some many old applications
with dead upstream for a long time seems strange.

Regard.
