xemacs freezes

I am running MacOS 10.2.6 and have installed XEmacs 21.4 (patch 9) using the fink package manager. I use Apple's X11, version 3. XEmacs crashes immediately if I click on the toolbar. The following error messages appear: xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Serial number of failed request: 1420 Current serial number in output stream: 1433 xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Serial number of failed request: 1421 Current serial number in output stream: 1433 xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Serial number of failed request: 1444 Current serial number in output stream: 1468 Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x5bc)! xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 55 (X_CreateGC) Serial number of failed request: 1443 Current serial number in output stream: 1468 What could be causing this? XEmacs works for most people with a similar configuration. I have tried many things, including re-installing X11 and removing /usr/local. However, I do not want to wipe my HD and re-install everything from scratch. Larry Paulson
