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

[Eric]

Eric <eric at ericaro.net> added the comment:

OK, this is a workaround. 

adding this line 
gtk.gdk.threads_init()

makes the job. And that's ok for me.

nevertheless, I still got the feeling that's this is a flaw in the Timer
implementation: it's behaviour is changed by some external (gtk) code.
