Problem with BMPx

[milosz derezynski]

Ok it seems like it's in fact some GTK problem. The shrinking is fixed btw
in SVN HEAD, i used gtk_window_set_default_size() instead of
set_size_request(), which
seems to work on latest development XFCE4 (4.3.3 AFAIR).

I'm going to talk to the GTK devels, and.. thanks :)
