[gtk-list] button speed way too slow

[Shawn T Amundson <amundson cs umn edu>]

The design of the GtkButton is too slow for my calendar widget.
(42 buttons that have labels.  Labels all get changed when a 
button is clicked.)

I found that the offender was gtk_container_check_resize in the
gtk_label_set.  If I just replace that with a gtk_widget_draw
there are no speed problems.  However, this has some very messy
results.

I can make a few assumptions:  the buttons need not resize, and
the only data in the button label is one or two characters or 
nothing.  If there is only one character it needs to be right
justified.

How can I make changing a button's label faster?
