i continued following code in gdb (on a machine that does not exhibit the bad
scrolling), and came upon gravity_works. according to comments gtklayout will
not work if (gravity_works == NO), and by setting it NO with gdb, i reproduce
the faulty behavior on a machine that otherwise works. so my conclusion for
now is that this is the problem. i will play with this some more when i have
a faulty solaris box available again.

does anyone know if this has been corrected in 1.4? gtklayout.c looks totally
different in cvs.
