I'm already doing the install_menu_hints thing in the app_created_impl
func. It's not a problem of using MDI in C, but using it with gnome--
(C++ wrapper). It works with a Gnome::App, but it does not work
with a Gnome::MDI. Karl Nelson (gtk--/gnome-- maintainer) looked at it,
the explanation why it doesn work is above.

Does this clarify things?

Hope so. If any other information is needed, please tell me.
