stderr output from simple test program

The use of GtkFontSelectionDialog is now deprecated, but hopefully
that's not a license to break it. (Some people may prefer its
structured approach to that of GtkFontChooser.) Anyway, the dialog
behaves badly on gtk 3.4.3. 

1) It takes a few seconds to open, while it is more or less
instantaneous on gtk 2.24.10.

2) The entry widget displaying the preview text is far too
big (the default text being just a single line) and looks
silly.

3) The dialog spews a lot of Gtk-CRITICAL messages indicating
internal breakage (stderr attached).

Should be fixed in master and gtk-3-4
