OK, i found my problem.  The mistake I made was using the same
GtkAdjustment for both spinbuttons.  I had to make a GtkAdjustment for
each spinbutton.

Still i find this strange... if both buttons can have the same
GtkAdjustments, then why is it necessary to make two GtkAdjustments? 
Wouldn't it be easier to make just one GtkAdjustment and use that for
both the buttons?  Of course, both the buttons should be able to change
values without affecting the value of the other buttons that use the
same GtkAdjustment.

Can somebody give me some more reasons why the GTK-people programmed it
that way and not the way I am suggesting here ?

Tnx!
Bart
