This appears to be a common bug. From several of those that I've found, Lars Clausen says: This bug has been fixed in version 0.90. Please contact your Dia packager for an update, or compile the new version, if you feel up to that. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 52836 ***
It is terrible that people are still using 0.88.1, 0.90 is so much better and 0.91 is GTK2 based. Treat reports against 0.88.x with extreme prejudice, most of them can be closed with a recommendation to upgrage.
