Re: GtkEntrys and trying to select during a changed or insert-text signal

["Zvi Sebrow" <zvi sebrow verizon net>]

I submitted a bug on bugzilla that talks about this.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=304080

Havent heard back if they've accepted my fix. You could apply the patch
yourself and see if it works for you.
