Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2012-06-14 19:11:18 UTC 
Matthias is seeing a mysterious, but very intermittent
error dialog where IceLockAuthFile is apparently dying.  Looking at the
libICE source, it doesn't protect itself against EINTR, which could
possibly explain the failure.

Gaurd against EINTR from our side in case that's the problem.
