Don't know for sure what happened in your case. It appears that all X Clients (including the inernal window manager) lost communication with the X Server at about the same time. The *IOErrorHandler's are called when communication with the X Server is lost. Sounds like you had a hiccup in your TCP/IP network stack on your Windows machine.
Lets just forget this unless it happens to you on a regular basis.

Several minutes into an X session with Test 92, while I was using a remote emacs session, the server bombed with the following message:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ xinit -- -multiwindow -clipboard
winMutliWindowWMIOErrorHandler!
xinit: connection to X server lost. xterm: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) or KillClient on X server ":0.0" --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Is the "winMutliWindowWMIOErrorHandler" error handler triggered when one of those null-pointer checks you mentioned finds a null pointer?
Thanks for releasing this build!
