This is a bug report I received from a Debian user. It doesn't have
much to do with Xtla, I'm just asking if someone observes similar
problems and thus can cooperate with the reporter.

Package: xtla
Version: 1.1-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
The `tla-edit-log' command, on my machine, sometimes hangs GNU Emacs under X11
(I'd say it hangs once every 10 `tla-edit-log' calls or so). More precisely,
Emacs hangs while typing text into the syntax-highlighted buffer provided by
`tla-edit-log'. This is something I've only experienced while typing text in
`tla-edit-log''s buffer.
At first sight, it seems to be related either to X, Xt, or Emacs' X GUI.
However, although it does not directly relate to `xtla', I thought
reporting this bug against `xtla' might help since other people may
experience the same problem.
The only debugging information I can offer so far is the call stack of
Emacs I got by attaching GDB after it hanged (and there are no debugging
symbols):

The version of `libxt6' I have is 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 and my `libc6' version
is 2.3.5-6.
Aditionally, in case it matters, my log buffer has `flyspell-mode' enabled.
I'm hoping others have the same problem... ;-)
Thanks,
Ludovic.
