Just to keep this alive, I still run into this on a regular basis. I
am pretty close to being able to come up with a formula to reproduce
it. I just have to take the time to do it. It always happens to me
when I exit an ediff session, and if I pause some time between using
"q" to exit the ediff session (which causes the little ediff frame to
disappear) and answering "y" to confirm that I want to exit the
session, this seems to greatly reduce the likelihood of a lockup.
I may spend some time on this. The last time there was a bug that was
causing emacs to crash on me regularly was around the release of
emacs 20. Thank goodness for the emacsclient -t workaround. At least
that way I am able to save my state fully before killing and restarting
emacs.
