[Bug 973500] [NEW] vim -g lacks scrollbars and spews critical gtk assertion warnings to the console

[Marius Gedminas]

Public bug reported:

If I launch gvim using vim -g (or vim, followed by :gui later), the GUI
window lacks scroll bars, and spews a bunch of Gtk+ assertion failures
to the terminal where I launched vim, every time I close a split window.

To reproduce:

   $ vim -g +'split|q|q'   # or vim +'gui|split|q|q'
    ** (vim:9716): CRITICAL **: os_pager_hide: assertion `OS_IS_PAGER (pager)' failed

    (vim:9716): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_widget_hide: assertion
`GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

    ** (vim:9716): CRITICAL **: os_pager_set_parent: assertion
`OS_IS_PAGER (pager)' failed

    ** (vim:9716): CRITICAL **: os_pager_hide: assertion `OS_IS_PAGER
(pager)' failed

    (vim:9716): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_widget_hide: assertion
`GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

    ** (vim:9716): CRITICAL **: os_pager_set_parent: assertion
`OS_IS_PAGER (pager)' failed

Compare with:

    $ gvim +'split|q|q'

which produces no warnings.
