multiple filters in GtkFileChooser

[Allin Cottrell <cottrell wfu edu>]

I use gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new to put up a File Open 
dialog. For some uses I add two or more alternative 
GtkFileFilters.

I've just noticed that with gtk 2.24.6 the dialog misbehaves: 
The drop-down list of filters appears, but the combo widget is 
much too narrow: for each of the filter names, only the first 
two characters are shown, followed by an ellipsis. The names 
are not particularly long (e.g. 16 characters). The widget
is not bumped up against any other element in the dialog.

Anyone know what might be happening here, or if there's a 
work-around? Thanks. (I know this was working OK with an 
earlier gtk version.)
