Hopefully. The gtk_clist widget that's used for the current list is even
deprecated in GTK-2.x. Therefore I think is smart of us to rewrite the
movelist (and the gamelist) to use a more updated part of the GTK library.

If that should be possible we must change some of the internal data
types so they're able to branch out a game, or make an new data type to
keep several matches. This will be a lot of work. I guess will come
later later later.

Let's see what happens.
