Kicad crashes most of time on moving an item

[jean-pierre charras]

All editors (schematic, libedit, board editor, fp editor) most of time (not every time) crash when moving an item:
- when cancelling the move (type ESC key)
- or when placing the item by clicking on the place position.

(tested with pic_programmer demo)

Looks to me it is related to commit 58ca5b71

While I can't reproduce this, I think I have a fix for it. (Does it hang rather than crash?)
