xemacs 21.4.8 crash on linux
This is a very occasional (but frequent enough to really annoy)
crash when I switching buffers using the electric-buffer-list:
xemacs crashes immediately upon selecting the new buffer.
XEmacs is 21.4.8; packages are xemacs-sumo from 22 May 2002,
though I've had the same crash when using an xemacs-sumo from
30 Aug 1999; platform is a pretty clean install of SuSE Linux
8.0, with not much else besides a few additional fonts.

[yep, it only gets halfway through that line before aborting]
