The mouse tracking in listview happens in the LISTVIEW_TrackMouse()
function, which seems correct. It is getting called from only one
place (in LISTVIEW_LButtonDown()) so a few print statements there
would be nice to see that (1) it is being called, and (2) that it
doesn't exit prematurely.

In this case a PE build of the comctl32 would be priceless: you
could just replace the native comctl32 DLL on a real Windows
installation with our own implementation, and see if the problem
persists. Is so, the error is in our comctl32 DLL. If not, it
is in the lower layers (message, events, etc.).

In fact, a PE build of the comctl32 would be so useful that I'm
a bit surprised nobody attempted it thus far... We should offer
a full PE build on SourceForge, together with the other downloads.
Any takers?
