Doing a single show_all after the widget hierarchy is in place, as shown
below, seems to fix this. I would guess this is due to changes in
geometry management between GTK+ 2 and 3.

Hi,
I have a scrolledwindow+vbox with multiple textviews one after the other strung together.
Built against gtk2, things appear fine. I'm trying to upgrade to gtk3, and
have a problem.
In GTK3, extra blank space appears after each textview when it is initially
created. As soon as I resize the window, the extra space disappears. It is this
phantom "extra space" that I need to get rid of. Any ideas what is wrong?
The following python-gtk programs demonstrate. The gtk2 version of this code
does not have the phantom space on initial creation.
Thanks,
Matt
