I want to revisit this.

I can confirm that gpm is indeed the problem. When gpm is loaded, I
can make either vim or links crash every time by repeatedly launching
and quitting them inside rxvt-unicode. If I quit out of a crashed
links or vim by typing "killall links" or "killall vim" from another
terminal, then launch the crashed program again from rxvt-unicode, it
always crashes again. But if I crash vim or links, stop gpm and then
launch vim or links again, then it works again. In fact, if I don't
have gpm loaded, then I can't reproduce this problem.

I know I don't need gpm if I'm running X, but I am curious as to why
gpm and rxvt-unicode don't work together.
