Haven't observed this one either. Which version of gtk are 'ya using? What
platform? I've been using gcfclient for quite some time; Other than assorted
keyboard probs which I've been able to fix (the buffer overrun, and then the
.crossfire/keys file isn't quite compatible w/ cfclient) and the ring/pouch thing
you mention below, it's worked fine for me.

Gcfclient is also nice because it looks good when compiled for win32 (cygwin);
cfclient sticks out like a bare thumb in that environment. (I haven't tested the
win32-compiled version halfway as well as I'd like, or I'd post binaries
somewhere).
