That's good to know of course, thanks.

In other words, the crash occuring in my program may not be related at 
all to a synchronization error? That's really odd, because the problem 
goes away after locking the gdk mutex.

Heh, now I'm even more confused than before, since the error in fact 
shouldn't even occur! *sigh* I'll try to check with gdb from which 
thread it's called. Maybe it's an error in the C++ bindings to 
gnome-vfs, and not in my code.
