This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Please describe as succinctly as possible:
- What happened.
- What you thought should have happened.
- Precisely what you were doing at the time.
Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have.

Dear Bug Team!
Howdy. I just pulled down and compiled 21.5.3 in the hopes that it
would solve a problem that's been plaguing me for a while now, namely
that XEmacs has been hanging or crashing regularly on me.
I didn't have these problems with 21.1.8; they began to show up in the
21.4 gammas and the 21.5 betas. The problem is that XEmacs begins to
spit out X errors after it's been running for a while. The errors
look like:
xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadFont (invalid Font parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 47 (X_QueryFont)
Resource id in failed request: 0x4c001bf
Serial number of failed request: 63955
Current serial number in output stream: 63954
xemacs: X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist)
Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont)
Serial number of failed request: 63954
Current serial number in output stream: 63954
The freeze generally happens when I'm trying to load something that
defines a lot of faces (e.g., cperl-mode or Gnus)
I've also seen it generate failed requests for opcodes 20 and 0 when
I'm switching between CDE workspaces.
I'm running in CDE on a SunRay, and my Emacs related X resources are
as follows:
!Emacs settings
Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-interface user-medium-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-*-*
Emacs.italic.attributeFont: -*-interface user-medium-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-*-*
Emacs.bold.attributeFont: -*-interface user-bold-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-*-*
Emacs.bold-italic.attributeFont: -*-interface user-bold-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-*-*
Emacs.modeline.attributeFont: -*-interface user-bold-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-*-*
XEmacs was compiled using Forte Developer version 6, update 2.
Any help that you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Steve
