RE: GDK_POINTER_MOTION_HINT_MASK has no effect

Thanks for the code, BUT... when I run it exactly as you
typed it below, I get NO output lines that say
seen a hint!
no matter how I move the mouse and press the buttons.
I get all other outputs: all button down and release and
motion at r x c type messages. No hints.

I am running this on a Windows box with gtk+ 2.12 installed.
