I'm not so keen to take this patch for git-gui. Exiting from bindings
isn't such great Tk style and I'd rather we used a vwait to explicitly
run the event loop and exit after terminating that. The following patch
does this. 'git-gui: change the termination checks to avoid potential hang'

I'm not certain of the conditions that produced the error this is
supposed to fix. I have not reproduced the hang so far on a linux system
using Tk 8.5. It would be good to get confirmation that my proposed
patch actually solves the issue reported.
