Thank you for the useful information.  Limited feedback I had so far was
pointing to it being Evo-specific, but if it's not then no need for a
bug report :-).  Unfortunately, I don't use gnome or kde, I choose Xfce
because I like it and it's kinder on my low-end PII PC.  Perhaps I'll
ask the good folk on that list if they know of a similar workaround.
Curious how the only app affected on my system is evo, which is why I
was blaming the deficiency on it  :-/.

Gavin.
