[bug #25385] crash in [GSToolTips mouseEntered:] called from [NSWindow _checkTrackingRectangles:forEvent:]

[Doug Simons]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #25385 (project gnustep):

Unfortunately, I got this same crash again last night. The window in which it
is occurring contains a tabView with two splitViews, an outlineView and a
tableView as well as a couple buttons and a search field. Oh, and a custom
view. :-)

So I'm really not sure which controls are registering cursor tracking
rectangles with the window that might be related to the problem (I expect at
least the splitViews and the field have cursor rects). Anyway, if there's
anything you'd like me to examine in gdb the next time it crashes, let me
know. I just don't know what to look for.

Hmm, it just occurred to me that it might even be related to cursor
rectangles registered by controls on one of the other tabs in this window. The
window has several tabs, with each tab view containing a number of controls.
Just prior to the current crash, I had clicked a button (in a different
window) that caused this window to come to the front and select this
particular tab. So I wonder if it might be not properly resetting rectangles
from controls that are swapped out at this point... just a thought.

Also, our custom cursor rectangles (in a different window) don't seem to be
working (cursor isn't changing), so I wonder if the tracking rectangle code
needs some attention, although this may be completely unrelated.
