Hi Eric,

ANIMATE_WINDOW was set to NO on GNUstep until recently, but a little  
while ago I tried setting it to YES and it worked for me.  I'm using a  
fairly recent SVN version of GNUstep and the Cairo back end (there's  
been a GNUstep release since I noticed it worked though, so it should  
work on the latest GNUstep).  Can you let me know what GNUstep version  
you're using?

David
