How long have canvas mouse events been broken?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax GUI Programming/How long have canvas mouse events been broken?

Hmm, curious me and Azazoth are only 2 suffering the mousemove stream.
I get a lot of mouse moves when the cursor enters the canvas.
It's the same on my machine, too (so we're 4 persons now); and I'd be really interested in a solution for this. So if anyone knows, please post.

P.S.: I searched in the forums and saw this - maybe these problems are connected?
