Hmm, I'm running into more xserver crash bugs with this issue.  The
retracer posts a truncated (unhelpful) stacktrace (printing 2-3 levels
of stack then saying something about dwarf op codes), then deletes the
core file from the bug report.  If I can get to a dupe bug before the
retracer hits it, I can get a useful backtrace out of it by running gdb
on it by hand.  So it's not that the crash file was corrupted or
anything like theorized in comment #2, just that the retracer is broken.

Pitti, could you please disable the retracer from operating on the xorg-
server bug reports for now?  There seem to be few enough crashers that I
can handle them by hand (actually, I'm finding using gdb on the core
file directly gives me more interesting info than the retracer gives
anyway).  Thanks!
