Comment #14 makes sense: the dasher package was compiled to use the
accessibility bus. It communicates with other programmes using it, so
that is the way it delivers characters to e.g. gedit. If the
accessibility bus is switched off, it can't. dasher can be built after
configuring with --disable-a11y to not use the accessibility bus, but to
use libXtst instead.

Comment #17 is worrying - and of course, I can't reproduce it: I just
had dasher running with the cursor all the way to the right and left it
running for over 20minutes outputting into gedit. This was on a core duo
laptop - just mentioning that given "TimerEvent" in your backtrace. In
the source head we have since made simplifications in that area, so
RecursiveOutput has actually already been removed, but AFAIK those
changes weren't actually bug fixes, just refactorings. What hardware
have you got? (Still assuming there is some sort of event race
condition...)
