9:15 a.m.
Unfortunately, there is no Lisp backtrace to be had, and I was unable
to reproduce the crash. It is a segv during gc_sweep().
What I was doing was... I am goofing with a script that acts as a
front end to XEmacs; it's similar to the one in the distribution that
uses gnuclient or starts a fresh XEmacs session. I've got it testing
to see if a "-display" option was passed or if $DISPLAY is set, and
if neither is true, and we are on a tty, then it ommits the
"-unmapped" argument, since XEmacs can't cope with that when
stdin/out are not a tty and DISPLAY is not set somehow.
I opened a terminal, unset DISPLAY, started a `screen', and then
typed `xg', the name of my script. Since there was no response to
the test for a running gnuserv, it started an XEmacs -f
gnuserv-start. No problems. I flipped to another screen, and ran
`xg' again. Boink, instant new frame. I can flip between them using
the `screen' escapes. Next, I opened a second terminal, this time
leaving DISPLAY set, and ran `xg'. Crash!
I've tried it again several time, and cannot get it to crash again.
When I run the gnuclient with DISPLAY set, it opens an X frame.
There's a bug here though; that X frame is not initialized fully.
The background is white, rather than the pixmap I have configured.
Here's the bomb crater:
