Yes it seems fixed now - BUT there is a similar error with GObject->set_data()
or at least set_data() has no effect but get_data() seems to work.

I have a very slow and expensive dialup link and I cannot afford the
time online to navigate the tracker pages - is there an email interface
that I could send to instead?

I will experiment and try to get back to you - my only idea is that
if the widget fails to compile the system may fail.
When did you run the test last? I have committed several changes to
Gtk2::Test lately so does it still fail?
There is a 'verbose' arg so that you can run 'perl t/041_Gtk2_Window.t 
2' and
see more of what is going on.

It all seems to work on my Perl (5.6.1) so I don't understand.

Thanks for the reply.
