Gtk1 still sends LM_SELCHANGE (that is mapped to OnChange at LCL level). 
Currently it does not send LM_CHANGED by a patch done by you (rev 
10767). Maybe this code does not work for gtk2 (or the message is coming 
for elsewhere). Not sure since i'm on a win32 machine now.

Some info on what all of this is about here:

Two changes related are at revision 10767 (see above) and 10993 
(unlikely to be the cause)

I can take a look at this issue but only in the next Sunday.
