wxGTK wxMutexGuiEnter vs. gdk_threads_enter

Hi,
the GTK threading system provides an exact counterpart to our
wxMutexGuiEnter()/wxMutexGuiLeave() in
gdk_threads_enter()/gdk_threads_leave(). I think for better integration
with GTK, our wxMutexGuiEnter/Leave should be implemented to call
gdk_threads_enter/leave, rather than using our own mutex. I have tried
it out and it seems to work. Does anyone see a problem with doing this?
BTW, I have noticed that the wxGTK code carefully calls
gdk_threads_enter()/gdk_threads_leave() in the places the GTK docs say
to, but the calls do nothing, because we never call gdk_threads_init().
Oops.
