(emacs:7259): GLib-WARNING **: g_main_context_prepare() called recursively from within a source's check() or prepare() member. I believe I recall a previous instance of the bug's occurrence as being seriously detrimental to performance, but the window would ultimately do pieces of a refresh every many 10's of seconds. In both cases, I need to kill the process and restart. I'll try to gdb attach to a future instance of the problem if it occurs.
