With a stripped executable, the Lisp backtrace is essential. We can
review `other-window' and `get-buffer-window' in hopes of finding
something odd, but that's hit and miss. Even with the Lisp backtrace
it's a lot of guesswork.

We really need to reproduce this in an XEmacs built with debugging
symbols. Either a better recipe or if you could reproduce it in a
fresh-built XEmacs....
Whatever you have time for, of course, but that's what would help most
in debugging.
