bug#26655: emacs editing crashes vnc session

Hi,
I am facing this intermittent issue since upgrade of my linux host from RHEL7.0 to RHEL7.2.
When I edit any file, sometimes vnc session crashes.
It happens randomly once or twice a week.
I am using following versions:
Emacs: GNU Emacs 24.3.1
VNC: E4.6.1 (r54321)

Is this a known issue?
Any fix or workaround?

Thanks,
Rajeev

If an application can crash your VNC session, I'd think that by
definition that has to be a bug in VNC. So you might have more luck
reporting it to whoever maintains it.

Hi Glenn,
Just wanted to check if someone else has reported similar issue and if there is a workaround.
Do you suspect version compatibility issue between emacs & vnc?

Thanks,
Rajeev

All bug reports with "vnc" in the title can be found here:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/pkgreport.cgi?package=emacs;archive=both;include=subject%3Avnc

I don't see any similar issues.
