A few things I notice:
* paint tool keeps painting after mouse button is released, and only  
stops painting the next time the button is pressed (not sure if this  
is a feature or bug)
* shape tools don't draw anything on the canvas (tried different  
colors and shapes, but no go)
* placement of onscreen keyboard for label tool is inconsistent in  
fullscreen mode
* real rainbow magic plugin generates a stray, miniature rainbow at  
the cursor location when the mouse button is released (in addition to  
the user defined rainbow)

In any case, I'll work on a new Tux Paint build for Mac based on the  
0.9.21 code base, with the most recent SDL libraries, to see if this  
resolves some crashes users have experienced.  I had a chance to try  
out Tux Paint 0.9.21 on an Intel Mac with Snow Leopard over the  
holidays (I'm still using a PowerPC Mac with Leopard at home), and  
though I couldn't get it to crash, I did notice a problem with  
printing (only a portion of the canvas gets printed to the page - on  
my home Mac, the entire canvas gets printed).  Hope to resolve this  
and some other reported problems...
