Unfourtunately, I agree the problem is somewhere else. :( I tried the
patch, but it gives the same results as before.  I still haven't gotten
around to firing up the debugger this afternoon.  How do I get gdb to
attach to testgtk so I can set breakpoints?  gdb barfs on the shell
script.  It's strange that testdnd and simple work normally and testgtk
doesn't.
