AboutBox is not modal

Hi Robin,

Sounds like a strange logic to keep that dialog shown like that, but
if t it sthe standard wxGTK way of doing things, I will just have to
build in a safety net and avoid the function being called twice.

Thanks!

IIUC this the GTK standard way of handling the About Box. There was
recently some changes made in 2.9 to better adapt to the fact that it is
non-modal (only show one even if the about menu item is selected again,
etc.) but it is still non-modal.
