Hello,

scid's UI freezes very often and has become unusable.

I am using the version 4.5.2.
Using Tcl/Tk version: 8.5.14

Linux whibapom.lab.gavika.com 3.16.3-200.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Sep 17
22:34:21 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug)

Steps to reproduce the issue;
1. Launch scid
2. Start engine 1
3. Play a few moves, either manually or using the Add Move button
4. Click on the left arrow button to go back a move
5. Click Add Move button

This is not the only sequence that leads to UI freezing.

Here's an excerpt from strace:

select(4, [3], [], [], {0, 0})          = 0 (Timeout)
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, 4294967295) = 1 ([{fd=3,
revents=POLLOUT}])
writev(3,
[{"5\30\4\0001\31\0\2\31\t\0\2\17\0\373\1F\0\5\0001\31\0\2\4\0\0\2\0\0\0\0"...,
584}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 584
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
select(4, [3], [], [], {0, 303})        = 0 (Timeout)
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
select(4, [3], [], [], {0, 75})         = 0 (Timeout)
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
read(6, 0x21c7288, 4096)                = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
select(7, [3 6], [], [], {0, 563886})   = 0 (Timeout)
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
recvfrom(3, 0x185e5f4, 4096, 0, 0, 0)   = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
select(7, [3 6], [], [], NULL


Is there a way to workaround this?
