Dear FPC-All

Debugging in GTK2-Linux of multithreaded GUI is a pain.
Some notes:
I have debugged with Eclipse C++ .so with LCL application as host, 
Eclipse hangs as well.
and entire X stops responding  (seems like X event loop was blocked).
Switching to Text console and killing host application brings desktop to 
life, but this did not help in debugging :-(

Regards, Anton
