================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I have been using xemacs beta for some time now. I got the sources from cvs and make fairly frequent cvs update's. xemacs usually crashes within a few seconds of use - usually when scrolling. But if I start xemacs with gdb it never crashes. This is now my normal way of starting xemacs. Is there anything I should do to help track this bug. I am using gcc version 3.3.1 under SuSE Linux 9.0, kernel 2.4.21. I configured xemacs with only one option, namely "--debug".
