Yep, I'm brain dead.  And that has sealed it.  These weren't defined
in my test program so no wonder I ran into trouble.

Thank you Kevin!

Is this:

use Glib qw/TRUE FALSE/;

the usual way it's done?

Although I could be screwing even this up because the output of this:
    print "Homogeneous is: " . $table->get_homogeneous ? "on\n": "off\n";
    $table->set_homogeneous(FALSE);
    print "Homogeneous is: " . $table->get_homogeneous ? "on\n": "off\n";

Is still:
on
on

But the labels and separators now fit on the screen, with room to spare.

Many thanks,

Peter.
