I've compiled XF 4.2.0 on RedHat 7.2. I get random hangs,
sometimes when moving long scrollbars, sometimes when closing
a window. It's on an Athlon, VIA chipset, using RedHat's
gcc 2.96. Maybe I should use kgcc instead?
If I disable DRI and add UseCCEFor2D, it still happens.

Is anyone else using 4.2, successfully or not, with R128 and
RedHat 7.2?

Here's an example backtrace, that seems to me like somthing
deeper than XFree86 code being at fault: 

(gdb) bt

    rtld_fini=0x4000dcd4 <_dl_fini>, stack_end=0xbffffbfc)
    at ../sysdeps/generic/libc-start.c:129        


I updated from CVS, still hangs. But, there is a glibc update
from RedHat which I haven't applied yet. I'll try that with
kgcc, and maybe with gcc3.
