	Hi.
	This problem is caused becouse the file dialog window remain grabbed
while new windows gets in screen.
	I´ve send a patch some days ago but it is not applied yet.
	The README is this:
---------------------------------
This patch is against gtkfilesel.c from gtk 1.1, 980629 snapshot

It's goal is to solve a problem GtkFileSelection has when it is grabbed
as when it is used as a modal dialog box.

In this case when we use tool buttons (Create Dir, Delete File, Rename
File), dialogs opened doesn't work because file dialog is grabbed
still.

The patch checks if file dialog is the last grabbed widget and if it
happend, grab the option dialog created. 
----------------------------------
	Attached to this message is the patch.
	Bye.
