    Yep, got the same thing.  I think it has to do with the way the GTK+
widgets are loaded dynamically with the program.
    Although, my computer's a P200MMX, so I thought it didn't have enough
power to show the widgets while articles were downloading.  Guess not. I'm
guessing it would require adding threads to separate GTK+ processing from
the rest of the junk, but I'm happy waiting until things (the downloads) are
done.
    I would guess this is a lower priority thing.
