No. I'm using CVS already.

I mean: Everything is ok. As long as I don't copy the gnustep folder to 
another machine. Thereafter the Tab images aren't used anymore.
Actually if I copy the gnustep folder to an USB stick, delete it, and 
copy it back to the same machine everything is working well. So I 
assume GNUstep does some evil things outside of its folder.

Thank you.
