21.2-b19-sneaky: linux: make-frame-on-display seg fault

In XEmacs 21.2 (beta19) "Sneaky Bastard 19991102" [Lucid] (i686-pc-linux, Mule) of Tue Nov 9 1999 on ulysses.jprc.com configured using `configure --prefix=/home/xemacs/debug --with-mule --site-libraries=/home/xemacs/lib --site-includes=/home/xemacs/include --site-runtime-libraries=/home/xemacs/lib '--cflags=-g -Wall -Wno-switch' --with-dialogs=athena --with-widgets=athena' Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: xemacs -vanilla in the *scratch* buffer evaluate: (make-frame-on-display (concat (system-name) ":0")) I discovered the crash when trying to use gnuclient between machines, but I can make XEmacs crash by giving make-frame-on-display a hostname. If I use ":0.0", "localhost:0.0", or "unix:0.0", make-frame-on-display works fine, but if I give it the name of my host, XEmacs crashes.
