Hi Ray:

The font errors are because GTK can only use TrueType fonts, and 
the MS Sans Serif 8 is not real TT. 
You can prevent this error if you add a line to gtkrc-winp to 
specify a font you like (choose one which does not have a big 
red A)

  GtkTreeView::allow-rules = 0
  GtkTreeView::expander_size = 11
  
  engine "wimp" 
  {
  }
  font_name = "Verdana 8"   #added line
}
class "*" style "wimp-default"

--
Once this is done, I get no errors at all.
