 Priority:  major                  |   Milestone:  MacRuby 0.4          
Component:  MacRuby                |    Keywords:  gvl lock runloop     
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
 the Ruby GVL is held when using a NSRunLoop from a secondary thread.

 if i change my code from:

 run_loop.runMode(NSDefaultRunLoopMode, beforeDate: NSDate.distantFuture)

 to:

 run_loop.runMode(NSDefaultRunLoopMode, beforeDate:
 NSDate.dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow(1))

 i can get a "slow motion" UI, as the main thread gets blocked every other
 second.


 this is with r776 on the MacRuby trunk
