XInitThreads() locking up my GTK app !?!?!

["David J. Topper" <topper virginia edu>]

Well, I hope this isn't a show stopper.  I need XInitThreads() to be 
able to fire off a separate video (v4l) object to monitor video input. 
But when I put it in my GTk application, it freezes up any time I try to 
enter text into a text box.

I'm also using g_threads_init and gdk_threads_enter ... and so on.

Does anyone have a workaround?  This is quite disturbing.

Thanks,

DT
