#275 xfw window disappears after choosing recent files

[Mamoru TASAKA]

Forwarded from: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2190356 , seems reproducible to me.

With xfe 1.45,

• launch xfw (X File Write)
• click "File"
• choose a file from recent file history

Then xfw window itself disappears (although it does not seem to be "crashing").
gdb seems to be saying that xfw is waiting for something:

Okay, looks like 1.44 was working. Comparing with 1.44 source code, the following seems to work.

 }

So, also "File -> New" is not working with 1.45. It should launch new window every time "File -> New" is chosen. With 1.45 nothing seems to be happening.

This is fixed in Xfe 1.46. Thanks!
