Description

If I open a file in DrRacket, allow check syntax to run, and mouse over a definition, I get many messages like this:

Gdk-Message: Window 0x185be30 is a temporary window without parent, application will not be able to position it on screen.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in DrRacket by opening a file, allowing check syntax to run, and mousing over a definition. Trace the check-syntax or mouse-over path that produces the Gdk warnings; done means the interaction no longer emits those messages.
