Well, I am using the gtk2 client (under KDE).

I tried beta5, and am still getting the same problem.

I tried making a treaty with the Zulus and asking them to give me 75 
gold for (for instance) my seamap.  They agreed, but no gold was 
transferred (my gold total did not change)....

Aha!  I figured it out, through sheer luck.

After I change the gold total, I have to hit "return" in order for it to 
be entered as a clause.  Why?!?  This is particularly nonobvious when 
using the arrow buttons in the combo box, with the mouse.

If this is a GTK2 problem and can't be fixed, it should be noted in the 
FAQ, release notes, or something.
