Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, it did not work.

I tried to insert sync calls, but could not find where to put them:

The first GL related function is GlGtk.area. But it would seem strange
to call this function through GtkThread.sync? It is in the main thread,
isn't it?

All the other calls are from callbacks.

The GlGtk-WARNING is displayed when the "display" callback is called only.

Even if this callback is a void function.

If I suppress the area#connect#display call, the warning disappears, but
 when the program end, there is a segmentation error.
