I'm not sure that can be made to work reliably.

Perhaps what we should do, instead, is to avoid deleting terminals in
delete_frame if Emacs is compiled with GTK.  The original intention was
for Emacs to close remote X connections when we're done with them.  But
if GTK responds to an X connection closing by crashing, maybe we should
just not close those X connections at all.

Tassilo, could you experiment with commenting out the terminal deletion
code in frame.c:1362, and see what the behavior is like?
