When I enable the wacom tablet in the Gimp extended input devices (setting it to 'screen'), to use the pressure sensitivity, it starts to behave strangely. I cannot pick guides from the rulers and the selection tool (the marching ants) become invisible. Has anyone had the same problem? Is there any workaround?

Do you always have this problem? It happens randomly here - sometimes I can use GIMP for hours without the problem. Anyways, it is a known bug and unfortunately there seems to be no workaround.
See Bugzilla bug 595678 or the duplicate Bugzilla bug 607856.
