Okay, I better get 1.11 out as official release.  1.10 sounds like it
was seriously buggered up on your machine.

Yeah, thought it might be that.  Used to hav the rule that
a control could only have a tooltip if there were the appropriate
parameters  in define.control that created it.  As I swept up 
define.control calls, I was accumulating knowledge about what
flags had to be set in eventual call to initcommoncontrols.  But then
I changed rules about tooltips, allowing set_tooltip even if not
tooltip created by define_control.  Oops.  Fixed that, ran down the
road to my XP machines to try it out and...ta ta...that didn't fix.

There are two ways of getting mouse movement stuff: using TTF_SUBCLASS
or fielding TTM_RELAYEVENT. I'm using the latter.  I'll switch to the
former and see if that works.  That won't be in 1.11 tomorrow am; that
will just get rid of visual styles stuff.

Oh gawd, now a Vista variant.  I think I'll hide in the cupboard.
