http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Tracking_Dependencies indicates that 3.8 is what should be required for GTK+... This is the official place this is tracked, so if someone introduced features that are incompatible it's their problem to fix. This is no different than us being conservative about C++ features getting introduced into the codebase years after they're available in compilers... given previous practices and reasoning, this wouldn't pass the enterprise litmus test as they wouldn't update to a newer distro version a month after release. There are cases where we did decide to push past that standard, but they've been very few and far between.
+1 agreed on all points.
Would people like to establish a process for periodically considering proposals for incrementing dependency versions? I'm thinking like a monthly project meeting to discuss development status and direction.

Ok, I am giving up now. The next issue is the change of "create_popup_menu" in "filter-effects-dialog.cpp". There is no easy way to patch this for GTK 3.14, because there Gtk::Menu::Menu(const Gtk::Menu&) is private. Since there are no GTK backports in Debian 8, I have to update to Debian 9 to build inkscape. Not nice :-(
