From searching online for this error message, it seems like we might be
setting the parent twice somewhere:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-app-devel-list/2000-September/msg00001.html
But grepping for "cascade_set_parent" in our src directory yields no
matches, not that I'm sure that helps much.
In any case, I tried setting the font to "Droid Sans" from the menu in a
GTK build, but I didn't see any warnings. Is anyone still seing this?
Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
