System Testing hangs if user cancels out of elevation prompt

[Gregory Gauthier]

Binary package hint: checkbox

Launch System Testing from System > Administration. Click Next. The user is asked for eir password for elevation. If the user clicks the cancel button, the program hangs, displaying "Gathering information from your system" and progress bar bouncing from left to right, and the application cannot be closed with the "X" button in the top left. Only Force Quit can terminate the application.

I can duplicate this easily.
