[Lazarus] Repainting nested components

[Roland Turcan]

Thanks for you answer.

I am converting one project from Delphi/Kylix to Lazarus and using SVN
versions of Lazarus with FPC 2.2.0.

This behavior is currently related to i386-linux-gtk. But I am going
to port it under MacOS too (Carbon).

Where I can find information of differences among widgets?
