Summary: [pd-gui-rewrite] random crashes when starting from pd-gui

Initial Comment:
i get random crashes, when i start the pd-gui-rewrite as "pd-gui" with arguments

the "delme.pd" is a simple patch containing msgboxes and [print]s.

Message:
fixed with r12959;
it turned out that the pdwindow was not yet visible when the "grab"
command occured, which crashed.

on tk8.4, either the code is executed slower and thus the window is
already visible when the "grab" is called, or it simply behaves more rebust

Message:
debian (squeeze/sid) tcl/tk8.5 (probably 1/3 of my startups fail)

with tcl/tkl8.4 it seems to be more stable...
