Changing to the gimp installation directory (.../Program Files/Gimp-2.0/bin)
and then running the program fixes the problem.  However this is clumsy when
editing images starting from the console - if you found the image and you are
sitting in that directory, then you have to switch to the Gimp installation
directory and then navigate back from the Gimp file dialog.  Also using an
alias to run the gimp through wine will not work.  And I am trying to run this
from the wine gimp menu entry, hence running the gimp in this way - the normal
way for most users - always fails!  In MS Windows 2000 SP4, the gimp runs both
from the menu and from the command line without being in the gimp installation
directory.  So this is a real bug.  This issue is a problem if you want to run
the program for everyday use - and you don't have to do that directory jumping
for the native Linux binary or the native Windows binary within Windows.
