It's probably more convenient to just run xemacs under the debugger,
since you have a recipe for reproducing the problem.
done, looks like i built without -g...
nexr week i'll try to build a new xemacs with debugging enabled, so IF
the problem is always present (who knows...) i can make a decent bug
report
for your info, gdb says its a segfault, asnd here it is the backtrace
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
