[BUG REPORT] Core Dump on Solaris in clist code

[dg50 daimlerchrysler com]

In my never-ending quest to get my name into an AUTHORS file: )

Attempting to create a file requestor widget with gtk 1.2.7 dumps core on
my Solaris box. So does the clist test in the testgtk program.

I've had a go at chasing down why. Note that I'm a perl programmer by
trade, and haven't done much C for ten years or so.

This is the output of my patented PrintF Debugger:

Bus Error (core dumped)

This sequence is triggered by pushing the "file selector" button on the testgtk program.

This help anyone?
