Test case

Items in menus that were torn-off don't emit "activate".

This can be tested e.g. on The GIMP or the attached example program.  If you click on "Select Me!" in non-torn-off state, it prints "Activated" to the terminal.  It does nothing if the menu is torn-off, i.e. the "activated" signal is not emitted.

Gtk+ 2.20.1 (as released by Fedora gtk2-2.20.1-1.fc13.x86_64).
Comment 1 Yeti 2010-07-26 13:07:35 UTC 
I compiled Gtk+ 2.20.1 from source and torn-off menus work with it.  So it looks like just the Fedora version is broken.

However, originally I got a bugreport about broken tear-off menus for my app on Ubuntu 10.04.  So eiher both distros break Gtk+ similarly or there's something fishy going on.
Comment 2 Yeti 2010-07-26 13:27:00 UTC 
I have found the patch in Fedora that causes this, so I'm reporting there.  Sorry for bothering...
