Oh, I remember running into that to. When you get a window manager
Destroy signal, the window is going to get destroyed even if you hide
it. I changed my handler to set the static member to null, so that the
window will be recreated when it's reopened.

window.Destroy () ought to do it, I think ... maybe window.Dispose (). I
forget how Gtk# handles that.
