Dialog hangs if the network goes away

Upstreaming from: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=183905 Description of problem: UI hangs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): krb5-auth-dialog-0.6.cvs20060212-1 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Wait for dialog to pop up 2. Go to bed 3. Come back after your VPN times out Actual results: When you enter your password, the UI freezes. Expected results: Detects that it can't find the krb5 server, and goes away for a while.
This is because the dialog right now blocks and we never find out about network state changing. This needs to be done more asynchronously, which should be fairly easy enough to do.
This was fixed by http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/krb5-auth-dialog?view=revision&revision=64
