[Bug 420546] Re: gnome-mplayer crashed with SIGSEGV in g_async_queue_length()

[Kevin DeKorte]

I believe the reporter of this issue has the environment variable

export G_DEBUG=fatal_warnings

set. However, what is happening is that gnome-mplayer is shutting down
and trying to gracefully shutdown the threadpool for retrieving
metadata. But gtk is not handling a empty/flushed pool correctly and
issuing the error.

I put in a workaround to not call this function when running under the
control of gecko-mediaplayer
