I can't seem to come up with a small script exhibiting this behaviour.. My
application uses libglade and is about 600 lines of code. I tried adding the
code which seems to make my app break to helloworld.rb but it doesn't behave
similair.. Would you like to see the code which do show the problem even
though it is a bit larger?
