 But why does it crash in the timer code? Somehow it thinks it gets an
 unexpected timer event. 
I don't generate timer events. Only client messages with the offix protocol
atom.

 This is ugly. Wouldn't it be better to try find the real cause? 
Yep... I'll try...

By the way (perhaps someone has an idea): the crash occurs only AFTER the drop 
(i.e. I can see that the text gets inserted, and then XEmacs crashes). Perhaps 
it has something to do with the evaluation of the misc-user event?
