Infinite loop video restart at startup

[cengique]

When compiling master on Gentoo Linux and running it after downloading the pk3s, I get an infinite loop at startup. It's a blank screen that keeps shutting down. Sometimes the screen size keeps changing, but it still happens when the screen size is set to be fixed. According to the console log, it's happening some time after loading the GrangerHub UI files from the new VM.

(note the window size below does not affect the error, 1920x1080 results in the same)

Running ./tremulous with +set fs_basepath /usr/share/games/tremulous/ (the original location for 1.1 and GPP files) solves this problem, but loads old IU and menus.

On this system, the GrangerHub 1.3 client used to compile and work fine. Not sure what happened recently to break it. I can't get any debug information from the VM, so I'm not sure where the error is coming from.

I can confirm that downloading the pre-compiled binary v1.3.0-alpha.0.14 does NOT have this problem, and works fine. Only compiling the latest version causes the issue.

Hey, I think that's related to #111
I think that it would be merged later else
