Bug Description

Tried on fedora 13 with versions 0.3.2.0 and upstream. In collection manager when a folder is added and clicked on the "Apply" button, exaile stops responding and the music folder does not get added. The program has to be killed forcibly.

Hmm.. this turns out to be a simple and silly issue. I just figured out that the issue is caused by the gtk theme i was using. For some reason i changed the gtk theme and things started working.

To reproduce the problem, use the following theme.
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Aurora-Pyte?content=110041

For testing purpose i tried with some other aurora engine based themes and found the same issue. I guess there is some issue with aurora based themes and exaile 0.3.2.0 and above versions.

Seems like Aurora does not like cross-thread access in this case. Thus fixed with r3650 in trunk and r3439 in 0.3.2.x.
