Import downstream patches?

[logistiker]

We have several patches in gentoo we have to make to build this package. Would you consider importing these patches?

I will have a look at them and send you some comments later.

The purpose of libiodbc-3.52.7-gtk.patch is to drop gtk1 support.
As I noted in issue #2, if that's acceptable porting to gtk3 (even with retained gtk2 compatibility) wouldn't be hard, though it would be most convenient if gtk+ 2.24 could be used, so that GtkComboBoxText could be used (that's the most simple way of dealing with GtkOptionMenu, that's compatible with gtk3).
