the StartIdeleing() and StopIdeleing() methods are called in the
ROOT eventloop. Therefore even when you try to disable it by
removing the timer from the list of TSystem timers (RemoveTimers()),
it will be reactivated automatically via the ROOT eventloop when it
calls StartIdeleing(). For the time being use the TROOT::Idle() interface.
The Marker3DBox problem will be answered by Rene.
The rootcint problem will hopefully be solved soon.
