Intermittent crashes, sometimes with a stackdump produced, sometimes not.
Generally after several hours/days of execution. As I said, not repeatable
enough to be useful.

And if I could start X under 20040217, emacs might well not crash.
>You wanna try debugging emacs?
I'd have to try debugging X first. Guess I'll dust off the instructions
for building a debug X server.
