I believe Firefox has a similar problem. To fix it, we created environment variables (NO_GAIL_ENV and NO_AT_BRIDGE) to tell GAIL and atk-bridge "it is not the time to be loaded". So if applications set these environment variables, even they call gtk_init(), GAIL and atk-bridge will not be loaded. After that, applications can load them any time they want.

Yes, I know, this is what gnome-program > made, and libgnome is deprecated ... I agree that we should find a more common place to put atk-bridge, so other toolkit can use it.
