My understanding is that a crash is an abnormal exit, so I presume that in
your case Emacs is not crashing. Does it happen if you start Emacs 22.1
with "emacs -Q" or "emacs -q"? If no, then you need to look at site local
files like your .emacs. If yes, then after starting Emacs under GDB, set a
breakpoint at Fkill_emacs:
(gdb) b Fkill_emacs
(gdb) run
After you start an external process doe this catch Emacs before it exits?
If so, please post this backtrace (`bt full' and `xbacktrace').
