Hello!

Fink installed a GTK+ version 2.6.8, so I thought this might make GNU Emacs 23 crash quite often (when chosing an item from a menu in a quite regular manner). So I re-configured for LUCID toolkit, but the same. In console log I can see:

XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmat() failed, size = 118784, errno = 24 XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmat() failed, size = 118784, errno = 24 XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmat() failed, size = 118784, errno = 24 XFree86-Bigfont extension: shmat() failed, size = 118784, errno = 24
    Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0xbae7)!
    Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0xbae8)!
    Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0xbae9)!

This usually indicates that a BLOCK_INPUT is missing somewhere in Emacs. What you need to do is start emacs under gdb in the Emacs source directory. Then in Emacs you call the function x-synchronize with a t argument, for example evaluate in the *scratch* buffer:
(x-synchronize t)

When gdb hits the breakpoint in the x_error_quitter function (that breakpoint is inserted by .gdbinit in the emacs source directory), print a stack trace from within gdb and mail it here.
