My old mouse finally gave in. I had an unused one lying around. It came with a USB keyboard. So a year or two old, but unused. Absolutely terrible. Difficult to use at the best of times, and totally unusable for paths.
I can see where a more sensitive mouse with higher precision could make the problem more noticeable, but it is definitely a problem in gimp that wasn't there prior to Cairo.

I don't use windows but you might try adjusting the DPI of the mouse. I'd love to hear if it makes a difference.
