Sorry, i have not put the paned "into" a scrolled window. This wasn't a gtk-bug,
my source code was:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

                         (...)

    gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (mainwindow), vboxmain);
	
                         (...)

	scroll_win_left = gtk_scrolled_window_new (NULL, NULL);
  	
    scroll_win_right = gtk_scrolled_window_new (NULL, NULL);
  	
                         (...)

	hpaned_split = gtk_hpaned_new();
	gtk_paned_add1 (GTK_PANED(hpaned_split), scroll_win_left);
	gtk_paned_add2 (GTK_PANED(hpaned_split), scroll_win_right);

                         (...)

    gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX(vboxmain), hpaned_split, FALSE, TRUE, 2);
