I don't think I have the recent byte-compiling changes, but I don't know for
sure.

I have not changed anything X-related, but there is some kind of managed
updating system that could have.  I'm running on Ubuntu 10.04 using whatever
the stock window manager is for Gnome.

I'm going to blame this particular system.  I didn't have customize crashes
on either my mac or openSuSE system.  There's no X errors or XtRemoveGrab
errors on those systems either. (But I'm not 100% sure right now that I'm
using exactly the same version of xemacs.)

Perhaps if it is a code change, I might find something when I'm doing the
search for the change that fixed the customize crash I was having.
