I haven't been able to reproduce this consistently, and most of the
times I fire up Emacs I also start Gnus. I'll try to see if I can
reproduce this without running Gnus at all.

Ok, I'm not sure if this is an Emacs bug. It is definitely *not*
reproducible with any other toolkit, so it may be ok for the update of
the package/port to 22.0.95 to use a warning in the package installation
which mentions that 'make WITH_GTK=yes' *may* cause problems.
Thanks for the help :)
