Wow, I must have been blin, sorry for missing this -- yes, there is no 
other way.  That's what I get for not having a "real world" test case here.

So, the call to (terminate-gtk) should be (close-all-windows), then 
:stop-gtk-main should be exported, and is the right way to stop gtk.

I won't get round to committing this until Tuesday, so it'd be great if 
you could change it in CVS.
