[issue6073] threading.Timer and gtk.main are not compatible

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

It is probably a problem with the gtk/gobject Python binding.
By the way, you're supposed to call `gobject.threads_init()` if you use
threads with Python and gobject/gtk.
Besides, gtk certainly has its own timing facilities, while
threading.Timer is rather crude.
