[GTK] Crash in some pages containing flash

[Carlos Garcia Campos]

The problem is that the flash plugin can produce X errors that the GDK default X error handler handles by aborting the process. It's reproducible with the formula1 website: http://www.f1.com

Adding gtk reviewers.

I went through this with Carlos before, it makes sense to me and seems everyone is doing something that ends up having the same effect. I'll let Martin give another r+, since this change is a bit hairy.

Seems very reasonable to me!

Here it should probably either say "in a plugin" or "in the Adobe Flash plugin"

g_str_equal here might be clearer, unless there's a possibility that basename may be null.

"happenswithout" -> happens without

We only do it for flash, so I'll use "in the Adobe Flash plugin" :-)
