	I imagine it's that the popup window itself is not resized correctly.
The best place to ask about this is gtk-devel-list gnome org since it's
clearly a gtk+ bug.

	I'd use my patch to gtk-demo to test it too, since it neatly isolates
the problem as in Gtk+ and it's quick to build.

	Nope - it's a gtk+ bug. Simply that if you add items to an already
popped up menu, it doesn't resize correctly. In some cases you can see
there are new buttons at the bottom that can receive partial focus, but
the window is not correctly re-sized.

	Also you'll notice some cruft in the popup code to do with sizing,
AFAIR a boolean set that does nothing / isn't read etc.

	HTH,

		Michael.
