Yes, I think you are right.  I am not sure but maybe the answer is to
call gtk_main_iteration to flush the gtk event queue.  I am testing
that.  If that doesn't work, I guess I'll have to learn more about the
Emacs event stuff... scary.  I may need help.

I've appended my updated erc-status.el.  I haven't tried it at all, I
just rewrote it to the new API.

Are you running dbus?  And do you have a system tray in your panel?
I'm not an expert here, either, but I would only expect these errors
if one of those answers is "no".

FWIW I do see the racy behavior you pointed out, but I don't see this
error.  I'm running a rather standard Gnome desktop -- whatever is in
Fedora Core 6.  My panel does have a system tray.

The notification stuff is cross-desktop, so it should also work if you
are a KDE user.  I have not tested that with the Emacs-based code, but
I have tried out other system-tray-using Gnome applications on KDE.

Thanks for taking the time to try this out.

;;; Commentary:

;; This provides nice support for the notification area to ERC.  In
;; particular it:
;; * Will blink the icon when you get a private message or are paged
;;   in a channel.
;; * Left-click on the blinking icon will show the appropriate channel
;;   buffer in some frame (which is then raised).  If there are
;;   multiple pages at once, it will show one and you can click again
;;   to go to the next one.
;; * Will pop up notification bubbles when you connect to or
;;   disconnect from a server.
;; This is regular erc module named 'status'; you can enable it as you
;; would any other module.

;; TO DO:
;; - make tool tip show some kind of real status ...?
;; - use a nicer icon
;; - add a menu
;; - integrate with auto-query a bit better
;; - let left click use specified frame or make a new frame?
;; - when last server connection is closed, remove icon
