well,

now that i use

	guile 1.5.1
	gnome-guile-0.21pre2

and since compiling/installing gnome-guile-0.21pre2 does not produce a
guile-gtk binary, i am facing and 'old problem':
	
	guile requires the use of (gtk-standalone-main window) in order to 
	properly realize the window

	but that is incompatible with a devel cycle, since destroying the
	window also destroys the environment ...

so, what can i do? Marius suggested once to use
	
	(use-modules (gtk threads))
    	(gtk-threads-ensure-handler)

but i first of all it is broken (see below) and second, i don't know 
where to use (gtk-threads-ensure-handler), if it should be in the gui
code or typed in the guile listener ?

so, thanks for some hints on this one
david
