It would probably be better to tell Red Hat (or your favorite linux
distributor) about this, if they have a feature-request page somewhere.
Because I don't think there's a reason to modify the actual X server to
do this; all you'd really have to do is check X's return value and if
it's a failure, start a program that does this.  So the linux
distribution would be responsible for setting up something like this.

Although, it would be nice to just write an XFree86-crash.HOWTO and have
the last thing the X server says in the event of a crash be:

   For help, try typing:  less $( locate XFree86-crash.HOWTO )
