Summary:                    xffm: column resizing does not handle long file names well
Description: 
1. open xffm
2. Navigate to a folder that contains a file name that is longer then the
width of the window.
3. Resize the name column to be smaller
4. close the whole tree at your the top level

The Name column will shoot out to a giant size and will become
unresizable.

If the folder where the longfile is happens to be the root, when closing
the folder the name column becomes too small and no longer shows names.
This is definitely a gtk bug. We should try to implement a bug workaround
within xffm.

Definite *not* a gtk bug and is now fixed in CVS HEAD. Note that column is
set to grow to accommodate bigger and bigger filenames, but will remain at
a fixed size if resized by the user.
