I verified this on my laptop, and it also displays the bug.
I compile with GLib 2.2.1 and GTK+ 2.2.1 for cygwin. Unfortunately
I don't succeed in compiling GLib/GTK 2.x from source (and I know,
version 2.2.1 is already old).
Do other people that compile with cygwin (and GTK+-2.0) have the same
problem? If not, which GTK+ version are they using?
