Bugzilla Bug 62408

This program doesn't seem to run correctly in the environment I've got it setup
in.  Wondering if this is a dependency problem possibly.  After loading and
entering any URL, it does nothing.  The cancel button displays a cancel window,
that never goes away.  I can't get out of the windows without crashing out of
the program.

Reproducible: Always

I had a similar experience as above when using gurlchecker and i have noticed
that bug 66061 has another issue relating to gurlchecker which may or may not
be related to this issue. 

This is something that has to do with threads/gtk events. Apparently with
recent versions of Gtk+, gurlchecker ends up in an endless loop, which results
in the unresponsiveness.

Please test gurlchecker-0.6.7-r1, which includes a patch to correct the issue.
It is a quick hack, far from an ideal solution, but probably the best we can do
until we bring gurlchecker-0.8* to the tree, which has re-implemented some big
blocks of code, including the aforementioned loop.

Thank you for your report.
