I use Mutt 1.3.12i (2000-11-27) and BB 0.61.1 wiht XFree86 3.3.6 and
have had no problems with BB or X crashing. I have had two or three
lockups of Mutt in the last six months (w/o X or BB crashing).
The only real problem I have had with X and/or BB crashing was with
Quake3 before version 1.30. I solved that by running Quake3 as THE X
client, i.e., no WM at all. This doesn't work with Q3 1.30 and I am
back to starting Q3 from an terminal. No lockups or crashes so far.
