No-one?

I am proposing to report this as a bug, but I was hoping for some feedback
in case I am missing something - I do not want to clutter the bug-tracker
with a spurious report.

If I don't get any replies in the next day or so, I will go ahead and report
the bug.

My guess is that the bug should be categorised as follows -

	Classification: Platform ; Application: GTK+ ; Component: gtk

Can anyone confirm that this is correct - I would prefer to get it right
first time if possible.

Thanks
