gtk_timeout_add problem

[Juhana Sadeharju <kouhia nic funet fi>]

Hello.

If timeout period is too low (with respect to what the callback takes),
gtk_timeout_add() gives problems: no configure or expose events are
called! I expected the configure and expose events are in the long queue
inbetween the timeout events and waited for a long time, but only the
timeout callback was ever called.

One could test it by creating a 50 ms timeout and sleep 1 sec in the
callback.

Regards,
Juhana
