I tried to create a GUI application with ruby and korundum. To keep the UI 
updated the other stuff should run in a seperate thread. I think this is a 
standard design for a GUI application. It seams there is a problem with the 
ruby-threads if korundum is in use. I created an example to show the bug. It 
seems that the thread runs if the mousefocus changes. Any ideas how i can 
make the progressbar usefull ?
