    It's the same build in all cases.  The same binary files.  I make a
    ".deb" package from the results of the build and install that same
    package on both machines, and run that same package under the various
    desktop environments.  So in all cases it's using GTK.

How bizarre.

    I don't know if you saw the silly patch for the problem which I posted
    earlier today, but adding a static integer variable and incrementing
    it before incrementing interrupt_input_blocked in the #define for
    BLOCK_INPUT fixes the bug!

This suggests to me that it has something to do with multithreading.
I have a vague memory that GTK uses multithreading.

Jan, do you get any ideas from this?
