No, it doesn't. The removing happens asynchronous, actually it's called
from a timeout handler.

The main problem for me is that the error occurs in my C++ program using
Gtk-- and libsigc++. Therefore providing a test case is a little bit tricky,
since I would have to write it from scratch.
Ok, if it's really needed I will try writing a test program, but this
could take a while.
