Did you read the FAQ on threads? You would need to gdk_threads_enter() prior to calling the set_sensitive(). > Woops... Is it always safe to call gtk_main_iteration_do(FALSE) ?

It's basically safe to call gtk_main_iteration_do() when it's safe to be "reentrant" (allow just about any other callbacks to run). It's quite hard to prove/know that code is safe against this, as other callbacks may destroy objects you're using, or whatever. So I tend to avoid reentrancy when possible.
