thread support freezes windows



Looking at this bug
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426729#c3

it says that one should not use gdk/gtk functions from multiple threads on
win32, possibly not on any platform. Is this still the case?

I have a situation where multiple threads will be calling a callback in my
code, which will cause it to update a GtkTreeView. 

If doing this from multiple threads is a bad idea, then I can instead put a
mutex around a data structure the is polled by the main thread.

Thanks,
Mike
