Summary:

	When using the Screen Sharing application on one Mac to control
	a virtual session on another Mac, if you hit the Time Machine button
	nothing appears to happen but the Finder is stuck in a half way state.

Steps to Reproduce:

	1) Use Screen Sharing to connect to a virtual display on another Mac
	2) Open a Finder window
	3) Open Time Machine

Expected Results:

	Time Machine

Actual Results:

	The Time Machine display doesn't appear (multiple Finder windows
	stretching back across a starfield). The active Finder window can't be
	closed. Other Finder windows can't be opened. Most of the Finder
	menuitems are grayed out. 

Regression:

	Not sure if this worked in previous versions of Lion

Notes:

	Relaunch the Finder and everything goes back to normal.
