With CVS of 2005-05-31, I still get occasional dumps (once/twice a week), and they usually seem to be when I'm going to get new mail using VM 7.17. I am now running emacs under gdb again so the next time I get an error, I can send a backtrace to whoever wants to see it! But am I the only one who sees them nowadays?
