one guess: the wiki page mention some options of gxmms that are specific
to 0.3 (-with-xmms and --with-bmp). gxmms 0.2.1 are the version
currently available for Hoary's and Breezy's universe. So maybe the
author of the page felt it was important to users to get the latest
version.

I have never used gxmms, so I'm not sure how Hoary/Breezy's version
compare to that one downloaded from source.
