The only pitfall is Mac compatibility.  OS X support in GTK is still
under development, and much harder to get running than Qt.  I guess one
other minor thing is that on win32 it's not quite native-looking, but
pretty darn close.

If Gtk provides everything you need, then there's no reason not to use
it.  I personally prefer it to Qt, although Qt is quite far ahead of Gtk
in many ways (including CSS to style widgets).  GTK's licensing is more
appropriate for closed-source projects than Qt under the GPL (and
cheaper too).
