I couldn't offer an opinion - I do not know what you are trying to do (or stop 
happening).  Try unsetting Gdk::BUTTON_RELEASE_MASK also.

If you are interesting in pointer motion, there are motion events/masks also.  
There are also button motion masks, which receive pointer motion events when 
a button is pressed.
