Hi Mike,

I thought I saw that too when you commited the change, but then 
re-examinig the whole source in detail, I couldn't spot it again. I must 
have stared at the wrong third of change...

Regards, Peter

So this patch tries to preserve the behavior when there is a concurrent modification (which is only possible from other thread and is illegal usage anyway since IHM is not thread-safe) while executing the toArray methods on the views...
