I noticed that is now possible to compile Emacs with GTK3. It looks
pretty good! Thanks guys!

Does it actually change anything?

Just the looks AFAICT. However, GTK3 has many differences at the API
level. I noticed this by trying to convert my xwidget branch to GTK3 and
I had to make many changes in my code, so the overall effort to convert all of
Emacs to GTK3 must have been big.
As an aside, some of the changes in GTK3 are annoying. The method of
clipping I employ in GTK2 no longer works for innstance.

Not much. But AFAIK, Gtk3 themes are not compatible with Gtk2 themes, so
Emacs compiled for Gtk2 won't use the right theme on systems with Gtk3 (and
vice versa I guess).

As Gtk3 now is all Cairo, I think you must do clipping on that level.
Or is that behaving differently in Gtk2?
It might also be that more widgets are windowless (i.e. writes into the parent
window).
For Emacs, scroll bars may not be redrawn correctly for Gtk3, so there is
definitly some changes in drawing.

Yes, I written some in the xwidget readme about it. The issue is mith
windowless widgets. They seem to simply ignore clipping area
requests. In GTK2 I was able to use GtkFixed and configure it to be
windowed. This no longer works in gtk3.

Have you tried to use GtkEventBox?

By any chance does GTK3 fix the multiple-display bugs that keep some of us using the non-GTK configuration? (From previous discussions, I expect this is a long shot...)

Presumably the one gtk2 emacs daemon mode now warns about.
-8<----------
david@golden1:~$ emacs --daemon
Warning: due to a long standing Gtk+ bug
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85715
Emacs might crash when run in daemon mode and the X11 connection is
unexpectedly lost.
Using an Emacs configured with --with-x-toolkit=lucid does not have this
problem.
-8<----------
If the problem is still present in gtk3, and a comment on the bug
suggests it is - https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85715#c55 ,
I guess gtk3 emacs daemon mode should spit out a similar warning (if it
doesn't already, I haven't got as far as trying a gtk3 emacs build yet).

The problem perists sadly. I did get the same warning also.
This was sad, I used mtty-emacs a lot before, but not so much lately, so
I suppose thats why I didnt notice it.
I suppose you've alredy looked at using NX or VNC as a workaround.

It's Emacs bug numbers 1493, 3360, and others. Also https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85715 which has a comment from 3 days ago saying the bug is still present in GTK+ 3.0.11. :-(

That's because the warning comes from a workaround in the Emacs sources,
which kills Emacs rather than allowing it to loop forever.
To test this properly, you need to remove that workaround and see if
Emacs now recovers gracefully, or whether it still loops forever.

In xterm.c, function x_connection_closed(), if I got it right.

When the X connection is lost, e.g. by logging out the user, Emacs
will loop, taking all available CPU time.
Tested with revision 104968 (BZR trunk as of today) and GTK+ 3.0.11 on
an x86_64 GNU/Linux system.
