[gtkada] Delaying screen updates for drawing area

[Nash, D. LTC EECS]

Here's a version of the double-buffer demo that works on Win32 systems.  It
was crashing for me on Solaris too, though -- can't remember exactly what
the fix was, but it had something to do with the ordering of the
Threads.Init call.
