It's not GTK, its either evolution or one of its components (bonobo, etc) that's broken. gnumric, for example seems to work fine
try: ssh -X me@remotehost gnumeric
evolution, on the other hand has all kind's of weird behaviour.
If you've managed to get xdmcp working, try: Xnest -query remotehost. You can set the size of the Xnest window with -geometry 1024x768.
Quickly, to get xdmcp working for RedHat using gdm, edit /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf and set Enable=1 in section [xmdcp], and restart X (logout, CLT-ALT-BackSpace should do the trick)
