I don't think any GTK1 specific bugs have been fixed it months (if not
a year plus). The only things GTK1 has seen in the last few months is
fixing regression bugs just to make it compile again (but that doesn't
even guarantee it can run).

So I would suggest staying with 0.9.26 and whatever version of FPC it
used at the time (I'm sure the wiki or Lazarus release notes will tell
you that). At least you know it works and can continue maintaining
your GTK1 apps with that version of Lazarus and LCL. Moving to
anything newer and you will be in for a headache.

You can also checkout tags/lazarus_0_9_26_2 branch in the repository,
but then you need to find the FPC version it can compile with - which
will probably be the save version used for 0.9.26.
