Well, even neglecting the kind of app (a WM) it is usually harder to debug
an app which just ends up in a strange/locked state. I prefer the hard
crashs ... ;-)
One thing you could try is looking for a simple way to reproduce the problem.
As an alternative one might also attempt a check for general problems,
e.g. memory handling. I tried running mwm inside Xvfb when I got
my crash yesterday (and an "unaligned access" on an alpha/DU system.
Usually I only see those from my Fortran code ;-)
