Is a fix for the Lyx-1.1.4 mystery crashes, which several posters to
this group have reported, in the works? I've included a gdb stack
trace of one of these crashes below, in the hope that it may prove
useful to the developers. (This was Lyx-1.1.4fix2, Sparc-solaris-2.6,
gcc-2.8.1, xforms-0.88):
(gdb) run

Regards, and good luck to the developers. The LyX activity that seems
to correlate with the mystery crashes is repeated keystrokes, such as
multiple deletes.
