Tor Lillquist found the issue, it was the GTK runtime I was using (gladewin32.sourceforge.net) that was not built with win32 Uniscribe support. I tried his build and it did not have this problem.

Sorry for not making it clear that the problem is not pyGtk specific as both the GTK+ demo and pygtk demo has the same problem as well as Gaim. I based the assumption that it works on screen shots of GTK apps I've seen where it is ok. I've attached a zip with screenshots of the problem and one how it looks when with the same text pasted into firefox. It also contains a python example based on the pygtk demo (textview.py).
