I'm also submitting this upstream for a proper fix. Notice that I will commit this fix to cvs and build it, this bug is just for tracking things until a real fix is available.
Created attachment 161042 [details] PATCH: glchess no longer works due to gtk tooltip changes
Scrap that I've found the upstream bug, and gtk has been fixed to be backward compatible (although the yellow background is still gone).
