I don't think Gtk fragmentation is a problem. Anybody sane
is going to merge with upstream as well/fast as they can
(if one is not going to keep very compatible to Gtk, what
was the point in taking Gtk in the first place?).

On your list wxWidgets is (on Linux) just a wrapper for Gtk,
Gtk on framebuffer is just a framebuffer Gdk backend for Gtk
(similar to the X, Windows and Directfb backends for Gtk).

Or were you talking about the stuff around and above Gtk?
The profiliteration of mobile platforms and their non-standard
APIs could be a bit of a problem...
