Of course.

Because you are in a GUI program, and GUI libraries do not like being 
forked at all.

Apparently the xcb library aborts as soon as you want to use the event 
loop inside a task (the Pop3Client uses it).

Try to put 'GB_X11_INIT_THREADS=1' in your environment to force the 
XInitThreads() X11 method to be called, and check if it works.
