From user Paul Davis in #9 from this bugreport ->> 

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674556

Fairly sure that this commit broke/changed the behaviour of the file chooser
button.

Small test program attached. Run program. Press "Click Me" to bring up a dialog
with an FCB. Click the FCB, select "Other". Click on a folder in the left hand
list, then click Open. The program will print to stdout indicating that the
current folder has been changed. Then click "OK" in the dialog with the FCB.

GTK+ 2.24.10: after the dialog has run, the current folder is the same as the
one selected.

Git 2-24: after the dialog has run, the current folder is the last one set by
the program.

I have this problem together with linuxdcpp and you can find more info from this bugreport ->>

I'm pretty sure this is the same as bug #691040.  I'll mark this bug as a duplicate; please reopen it if you see incorrect behavior with GTK+ 2.24.18 or later.
