Bug Description

I'm trying to follow tutorial on http://www.geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:gsch2pcb_tutorial. I made .pcb board and trying to use autorouting on single side. To do this I try to hide "components" layer and program hangs with following output in console:

pcb board.pcb
ToggleView(): l = 3
ToggleView(): l = 3
ToggleView(): l = 3
ToggleView(): l = 3
ToggleView(): l = 3
....

I'm using latest pcb from git repository

This appears to be a problem with the View | Shown Layers menu. Hiding the component layer with the layer buttons works, but choosing View | Shown Layers | component produces the reported behavior.

Workaround is to not use the View | Shown Layers menu until this is fixed.
