Thanks to those who offered suggestions. In the end, it turned out
that I'd just made a couple of false assumptions about how the table
resizing worked. I think I've fixed it now. I've attached my test program
just in case anyone else is having trouble with table resizing.
Perhaps there should be something like this in the "tables" section
of the Gtk Tutorial...?
