Ok, I added GObject.threads_init() just before GtkClutter.init([]).

I've also changed all instances of set_parent() to add_actor().

Neither of these things has had any effect. Without my workaround
(calling ChamplainView.queue_redraw() from inside a signal handler on
ChamplainView::paint signal), the actors animating in front of the map
still blank out the map and cause corruption of the ClutterText
exactly as I described before. Also, tiles are still wildly corrupted
during PathLayer rendering.

Any more thoughts? I was really excited when I got your message
because I thought I'd go home and everything would be fixed. :-(
