I believe that's a theme issue, though I'm afraid I don't how to go
about fixing that.

Again, I'm afraid I don't have any pointers for you.  I learned the
widget by reading through the API documentation a number of times until
it made sense, though I have yet to do anything using the widget more
complicated than simple trees and lists using the text-based cell
renderers.

Sorry I can't be more helpful... I'd try writing the tutorial myself but
life is far too hectic at the moment :-(
