OK, it was actually easier than I tought... during library load a lib is
missing and it want to show the 'The following libraries could not be
found:' dialog.

It does the ShowModal and the following nested gtk-main loop but the
dialog is not mapped (strangely other UI elements are still accessible,
something in the 'modal' stuff is incomplete). I presume it's still
waiting for a dialog dismissal (but the dialog is not on screen anyway)!

No complaints from the debug gtk, either.

Could it be that at that time some wx structure is not yet ready from
the kiface machinery?
