Thanks ... I tyracked it down and fixed it in svn.
The tool tip code was being confused by the fact that the dock icons are adjacent to each other, and sometimes the event for exiting one was arriving immediately after the event for entering the next one rather than immediately before it.

It's really a little strange how this bug shows itself.  The only place that I actually notice it is in GWorkspace's Dock.  If I'm mousing over the dock, the first time I come up on it the Tool Tip appears, if I move the mouse to the icon (docked app) above the Tool Tip for that icon will not come up, however, if I move the mouse to the icon below the Tool Tip will show.

I'm using GNUstep-base 1.14 and -gui 0.12.  I figured the bug was in AppKit, but I can only test it in GWorkspace as I don't know of any other app that sets views this way.  And let me know if this needs further explanation.
