11:12 a.m.
Some time ago I sent in a report which I have attached below. This describes a
crash I have experienced several times, each time caused be (accidentally) doing
a mouse paste to within the primary selection region (i.e. the text I was trying
to copy).
Here is the result of M-x describe-installation:

(1) CRASH PRINTOUT:
Fatal error (11).
Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.
Please report this bug by running the send-pr script included
with XEmacs, or selecting `Send Bug Report' from the help menu.
As a last resort send ordinary email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'.
*MAKE SURE* to include the information in the command
M-x describe-installation.
If at all possible, *please* try to obtain a C stack backtrace;
it will help us immensely in determining what went wrong.
To do this, locate the core file that was produced as a result
of this crash (it's usually called `core' and is located in the
directory in which you started the editor, or maybe in your home
directory), and type
gdb /usr/local/bin/xemacs core
then type `where' when the debugger prompt comes up.
(If you don't have GDB on your system, you might have DBX,
or XDB, or SDB. A similar procedure should work for all of
these. Ask your system administrator if you need more help.)
Lisp backtrace follows:
input-pending-p()
paren-highlight()
# (condition-case ... . error)
# (condition-case ... . error)
# (catch top-level ...)
