This RichEdit bug is very severe and is annoying a whole bunch of people, 
not the least on the TGL mailing list. Now I've tried three times to work 
_around_ this bug so I can make a release with a working RichEdit control, 
but the behaviour is truly bizarre, and I haven't suceeded (things don't 
behave the same for simple examples as from within TGL).

In short, can we please release a new version of Win32::GUI in the near 
future? I would be happy to test a  release candidate to make sure it works 
with TGL.
