can not use gimp pop-up windows

I observe some strange behavior when using GIMP:

it affects any pop-up window inside GIMP - if the window opens under the cursor or if I enter the window with the cursor immediately after it is shown, I can not click on anything inside the window. However the buttons show their normal behavior on mouse over - they change their shading, but clicking does nothing. The only thing I can do at this stage is pressing the ESC button to close the pop up window. If I go away with the pointer from the location on which I know the pop-up will open and wait a little bit before attempting to use it everything works fine.
I am expecting this strange behavior for quite a lot of time, at least with several from the latest GIMP versions, built both on 32 and 64 bit Gentoo Linux. Now I am running GIMP 2.6.11 on Xfce 4.8.0, with nvidia video drivers. There are no warnings on the console. It looks like some timing issue. It's not a big problem when you get used to it, but it is not normal.

Any one else noticed this?
