It's a problem with *everybody's* GTK+ 1.2, I suspect.  The GTK+ combo
box is, by default, case-insensitive, and, I guess, checks the current
state of the combo box, after every update, to see if it matches any of
the strings in its list and, if so, inserts that string.

The fact that it defaults to case-sensitive does not appear to be
documented anywhere in the GTK+ 1.2 API reference:

	http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/gtk/gtkcombo.html

I've checked in a change to make it case-sensitive.
