OK, did the rename, and I just had pan still hang. Not very much
longer after starting it and updating newsgroups actually. It's
currently blocked in:
select(5, [4], NULL, NULL, NULL
So even though it does not do any "gui painting/refreshing" the app is
waiting for I/O in a select. It seems like it just forgets to
update/interact with the UI.
It's still sitting there for the time being if you want me to do any
tests with it. I will try to leave it there as long as I can.
The pattern so far seems to be multithreaded gnome apps. Does gnome
have an specific API/methodology for doing multithreaded interactive
apps? Is it possible the gnome core libs that take care of this are
borken?
