With a quick look at the XEmacs code, I can see only two possibilities:
(1) a wild pointer;
(2) Mac OS X is delivering an unexpected SIGALRM or similar.
I wonder if that correlates with suspending.
There used to be a problem in X11 (OS X) when a network transition
occurred during sleep (i.e. the Mac goes to sleep with one IP and wakes
to find it has another IP). Individual programs or the entire xserver
would crash.

Thanks for the info!
I don't see how remote clients could avoid crashing -- the X server
goes away, but the X server needs to be robust to that.

I-guess-I-haven't-seen-it-because-Rust-Never-Sleeps-ly y'rs,
To be more specific, the crashes would occur on a machine where the
server was on the machine where the transition occurred and the clients
were also.
I never see this with my MBP (just in the past with my old PowerBook).
So the problem seems to have been fixed soon after Jeremy took over
maintaining X11.
