 Seeing this in MathRace, basically when a user shares the activity mesh.py
 tries to import sugar.presence.presenceservice, the import never returns
 and the activity becomes entirely non-responsive (to the point that one
 can't even switch to another window to attempt to use the debugger to find
 out what particularly is failing).

 It *looks* like a complete hang in the GObject mainloop, as though there
 was a synchronous GObject call that never returned or maybe a call to a
 GObject operation from outside the GObject mainloop.  The Pygame mainloop
 continues to run AFAICS (continues to update the screen), but it's not
 getting any new events other than timers.
