first, an item factory is a GtkObject a not a widget, so you can't
realize or show it.
apart from that, you should actually never need to realize a widget (apart
from the Text widget in older gtk versions), this will be done automatically
when the toplevel is shown.

the reason you didn't get an immediate warning when showing or realizing
the item factory is due to a bunch of missing warnings in gtkwidget.c. this
should be fixed in cvs by now.
