Repeatable very long delays exiting gnus and xemacs

This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I don't exit GNUS and XEmacs very often, but whenever I do, I find that XEmacs will delay for a very long time exiting GNUS, and delay indefinitely exiting XEmacs. I use a virtual window manager on Win2k (sdesk). I have my main XEmacs window in one workspace, and my GNUS window in another. Very often, when I exit GNUS (with "q"), the window will go away, but I'll notice that XEmacs is using all available CPU. I can click on the sdesk panner to go to the other workspace with the main XEmacs window, but it doesn't actually complete that move for close to a minute after that. When I'm down to my main XEmacs window, and I use "save-buffers-kill-emacs" to exit, the window will go away, seemingly ending the XEmacs session. However, when I look at the running processes, I see xemacs still there, using all available CPU. I've tried letting it run like that for several minutes, but it's never finished. I almost always have to kill the process. I don't know if it's ever completed. Both of these symptoms almost always happen every time I exit GNUS and XEmacs, although I usually run for quite a while (days) before exiting either. I haven't tried short session tests of this. I know that there's been some discussion about whether there's particular problems with XEmacs in VWMs. That could be related to this. ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: CYGWIN_NT-5.0 TSUNAMI 1.3.2(0.39/3/2) 2001-05-20 23:28 i686 unknown ./configure '--with-dragndrop' '--with-postgresql=no' '--with-x=no' '--bindir=/usr/local/bin/i686-pc-cygwin' '--with-site-lisp=yes' '--with-ipv6-cname=no' '--with-netinstall' XEmacs 21.4.6 "Common Lisp (Windows [1])" configured for `i686-pc-cygwin'.
