[Gtk-sharp-list] Points/Lines and Glade

Pixmaps do not have the flags set to allow for any interesting events to
be received.  See my sample code in mphoto, mlist or monodoc's list.cs
to see how to set the events to be delivered.

A drawing area has those events setup.

There are plenty of gnome_print calls in Gtk# today, did you see them?
