Sorry to hijack this thread (a little.. it's snot entirely offtopic, but I admit I do not understand half of what you guys say :) ). I've seen some dead-locks in simple-ccsm (a python app, with a native lib, libcompizconfig linked). Especially on slower notebooks I have trouble loading the app (sometimes it works, most of the time it fails). On the fast system I never experienced an issue with it. Could this be a consequence of such an issue as stated in this thread?
