Tooltips disappear when a new GtkMenu is created

Created attachment 281005 [details] A minimal example If a tooltip is visible and a new GtkMenu widget is created, the tooltip will disappear. The menu doesn't even need to be visible, the tooltip disappears immediately after gtk_menu_new() is called. A new toplevel window is created in the gtk_menu_new function and the menu is added as a child into that window. After further investigation, it turns out that the tooltip window disappears when a child is added into a GtkWindow. I have attached a minimal example which shows this behavior.
