I and others reported this here three times already (I think).  Once I
contacted RMS about it and he said to use gdb to debug.  Now imagine
tracing something like this with gdb!  Intermittent, requires multiple
programs, involves X server ... horror.  Not to speak about the
resources needed just to build emacs with full debugging info.

Looks like this will never get fixed unless someone is paid to
track it down.

If you still stand behind the hypothesis in your penultimate post
that selecting something in emacs triggers it, you got further than
I did, though.  Is that the case - your last post is ambiguous.
