Sorry to be replying to myself, but a few more things regarding
thumbnail generation:

- doesn't have to be a dir of many *large* images to reproduce this;
could be a dir of many small images, for example a dir of many XPMs used
by a window manager (I let rox generate thumbnails in a dir of about 900
XPMs used by icewm, and the progress indicator hardly budged until the
generation was complete).  The more thumbnails are being generated, the
more confused the progress indicator appears to be.  :)

- the cancel button displayed during thumbnail generation does not
cancel the generation when pressed
