One further detail for anyone trying to reproduce this: I just tried it on a
second computer, and my recipe didn't immediately produce the crash. But I
simply started trying to use texworks (loading and compiling various tex
documents), and the X server crashed within a few minutes.
Thanks very much for the detailed report.
On the off chance this is a known issue, would you mind downloading the X
server symbols and getting a backtrace using the instruction on [1], before I
try to reproduce it.
OK, the backtrace is attached.
Thanks very much.
I'm afraid I can't reproduce your issue, but looking at the backtrace and the
somewhat intermittent nature of the fault, I think perhaps this crash is
caused by a race condition which exists in the conversion of the window icon
from an X property to a Windows icon.
I've uploaded a snapshot with some fixes for that at [1], perhaps you could
try that out and see if it helps?

Yes, that seems to fix it. I just started texworks and compiled 6 or 7
tex documents without a crash. I've never been able to do more than 1
or 2 before.
Thanks!
Ken
