I got this reply from xemacs.org:

Almost certainly a Fink or Apple bug, tell them about it.  It seems
that recent updates to the X libraries are binary incompatible with
old builds.

Probably you can work around with

(setq progress-feedback-use-echo-area t)

in init.el.

That does, indeed, work around the problem.

Where do I report it, other than this list,?

Approximately since then whenever I attempt to open some files (not all files, I think) xemacs crashes while fontifying the file.

I tried starting with xemacs -q (no init file) and can open, for instance init.el, but not custom.el?
I did set debug--on-error, but it still goes away.

I sent a bug report to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If it would be helpful, I can send it to you, too. It includes the output of a lisp dump and the CrashReporter dump.

For what it's worth, the Carbonized GnuEmacs.app is NOT crashing (at least not yet).

I'm using the "standard" Apple X11 -- I have been seeing plenty o xterm crashes...

Do we need a new xemacs-sumo build in the stable tree?
