I have noticed the same thing with my Emacs (currently GNU Emacs
22.0.98.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.6) of 2007-04-20 but
I've noticed this for a long time), but only when running under KDE
using the GTK Style QtCurve.  This is on openSUSE 10.2 using kcm_gtk,
"the KDE control module for switching GTK+ style", which I think is
the openSUSE substitute for (or version of) the gtk-qt engine.  I
attach a picture showing the problem.
