This seems to crop up all the time.  From what I recall, the use of
threads of any kind with GTK on Win32 is not supported, even with the
ENTER/LEAVE calls around every GTK/GDK call.  The only way to use
threads and GTK in win32 is to do the g_idle_add thing to trigger a
callback from the thread.

Usually trying to use threads in GTK in win32 doesn't cause memory
corruption, though, so that's a separate problem, I think.
