Simon, as we already mentioned before: we can't reproduce that on a
fresh installed Win2k (ok, it's a virtual machine, but still). If you
have some more information about how to reproduce this, maybe I can do
something about it.

Besides that: I was finally able to reproduce the garbled menu when
XnView is installed. Had to remove two other shell extensions first to
get it to 'work' so that TSVN disabled showed a correct menu, and TSVN
enabled showed the garbled one.
What I found: if a context menu uses the HBMMENU_CALLBACK to draw the
menu icons (not the whole menu, just the icons), then the menu is
garbled. Otherwise it appears just fine.
But: I've also tried other extensions which show an image preview in the
context menu, and they all work fine. It's just XnView which garbles the
context menu completely.

I've really tried everything, even setting all params to fixed values
(just to be sure TSVN doesn't set a value wrong by accident). Nothing
helped. So I really think this is a bug in XnView - more so since two
other shell extensions showed the same incompatibility with XnView, not
just TSVN.
