>Description:
Since the last devel/glib20 update audio/sonata crashes at startup with: GLib (gthread-posix.c): Unexpected error from C library during 'pthread_mutex_unlock': Operation not permitted.  Aborting.

Investigation showed that this is mainly caused by enabling GTK threading but still calling pyGTK function without holding the mutex. A simple solution is to desable GTK threading at all, sonata still works correct without it. An updated version of patch-sonata.py.

>How-To-Repeat:
Upgrade devel/glib20 to 2.34.3 and start sonata.
