this is because the cells re-render when you mouse-over them, mostly to 
allow prelighting and such.  this is a gtk+ issue, not a binding one 
(although using custom cell renderers can exacerbate it), so you will 
want to look for this issue in bugzilla and log a bug about it if 
there's not one already.
