I've seen similar errors, but only when I'm behind a firewall using
socks, so I think it's unrelated.

JL> If you have access to the PROBLEMS file that came with your

JL> As a last resort send
ordinary email to `crashes(a)xemacs.org'.
JL> *MAKE SURE* to include the information in the command M-x

JL> If at all possible, *please* try to obtain a C stack

JL> located in the directory in which you started the editor, or
JL> maybe in your home directory), and type
JL> gdb /usr/bin/xemacs core

JL> don't have GDB on your system, you might have DBX, or XDB, or
JL> SDB. A similar procedure should work for all of these. Ask
