Description of problem:
When running emacs in an X window under Fedora Core 3, it frequently crashes with the message:

X protocol error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) on protocol request 25

... or something similar.

This is not limited to the local machine only; for example, if I ssh into a machine running Fedora Core 2 and run emacs, it has the same behaviour.  (Obviously, if I disable X forwarding and/or use the -nw option, this doesn't happen, but then emacs is crippled.)



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-6.8.1-12.FC3.1

How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run emacs in an X window on a stock Fedora Core 3 system.
2. Do a bunch of editing.
3.
  

Actual Results:  Sooner or later, it will crash.  This applies even if it is an emacs from another machine.
