You have to build form the ground up.
Well, Pd is a programming language, and as with all language, you
can say
things you'd have wished you didn't say or with programming: It
easy to overload
any machine (bang until) with a programming language.
I have to say that with most programming languages an infinite loop
does not
mean an X crash. Probably I should contribute code, not words (sorry).
Just because Pd triggers an X crash does it mean that Pd is the cause
of it. A similar example is when people complain that Pd blue screens
their windows box, as I have seen before. That's generally because
some of the PC audio hardware and Windows drivers are so atrocious
that actually using them beyond playing back youtube videos causes
BSODs.
In other words, the cause of your X crash likely lies elsewhere.

Best,
Chris.
