Package: xemacs21-nomule
Version: 21.4.21-1
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/xemacs-21.4.21-nomule

xemacs randomly, but reliably crashes after a few minutes. Since the
action triggering this is pretty much random (resizing the window,
scrolling in a file, ...), it seems to be a GC problem. Backtraces
don't seem helpful, e.g.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~% xemacs 
Warning: Cannot convert string 
"-*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646" to type FontStruct

Fatal error (11).

Your files have been auto-saved.
Use `M-x recover-session' to recover them.

Your version of XEmacs was distributed with a PROBLEMS file that  may describe
your crash, and with luck a workaround.  Please check it first, but do report
the crash anyway.  Please report this bug by invoking M-x report-emacs-bug,
or by selecting `Send Bug Report' from the Help menu.  If necessary, send
ordinary email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]'.  *MAKE SURE* to include the XEmacs
configuration from M-x describe-installation, or equivalently the file
Installation in the top of the build tree.

*Please* try *hard* to obtain a C stack backtrace; without it, we are unlikely
to be able to analyze the problem.  Locate the core file produced as a result
of this crash (often called `core' or `core.<process-id>', and located in
the directory in which you started XEmacs or your home directory), and type

  gdb /usr/bin/xemacs core

then type `where' at the debugger prompt.  No GDB on your system?  You may
have DBX, or XDB, or SDB.  (Ask your system administrator if you need help.)
If no core file was produced, enable them (often with `ulimit -c unlimited'
in case of future recurrance of the crash.

Lisp backtrace follows:

  # (condition-case ... . error)
  # (catch top-level ...)
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  xemacs
