I almost never have hangs under cygwin on W2K, so it may be a windows thing.
Its conceivable though that the VWM fix will help this also. You should try
then next set of binaries when they are released.
Unfortunately I don't have a copy of WinXP to try on. A reproducible test
case would help a lot.

Subject: XEmacs occasionally hangs on Windows XP
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!
I sometimes experience that xemacs hangs. I can't really reproduce it
but it mostly happens when I'm running Gnus (which probably accounts
for a large percentage of my total xemacs usage):
I see two things:
1) When Gnus is done showing the summary buffer with many entries, it
just hangs and it's not possible to move the cursor. Menus seem to
be responding although they don't execute any commands. It's
sometimes possible to leave this state by minimizing the xemacs
windows or using the scrollbars.
2) Today, when composing a message, xemacs just hung. All UI updates
where suspended (i.e. xemacs windows did not redraw). Only resort
was to kill xemacs.
Has anybody else experienced this? Is it a known problem? I'll try to
watch the issues more closely, are there specific steps one can use to
get more infor in this situtation?
btw, Running this on WinXP Pro
