Emacs-GTK hangs with dialog boxes

For completeness, I want to flag that my GTK build of Emacs has the same 
problem described here: 
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2009-09/msg00051.html.

Practically, after starting Emacs,

$ G_SLICE=always-malloc emacs -q &

its first three icons on tool-bar (new file, read existing file, read 
directory) do not work. Emacs hangs for 20-30 seconds, and at prompt it 
writes:

$ Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-graziosi/fam-
(emacs:3556): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: FAMOpen failed, FAMErrno=3

Failed to connect to socket /tmp/fam-graziosi/fam-
(emacs:3556): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: FAMOpen failed, FAMErrno=3

(emacs:3556): Gtk-WARNING **: Impossibile trovare il tipo di monitor 
predefinito per directory locali

(emacs:3556): Gtk-WARNING **: Impossibile trovare il tipo di monitor 
predefinito per directory locali


I think that the problem happens after a recent (one or two weeks) 
upgrading of gtk | glib | GNOME libraries, when Emacs showed new icons.


Cheers,
Angelo.
