Agreed.
There wasn't enough context in the initial mail, but I suspect this is
an emacs compiled with Gtk+. It works (and it has always done so)
perfectly well for me when using Lucid.
There's a long standing Gtk+ bug:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85715
that creates problems with closing the display for Emacs from time to
time. Jan has put in a few workarounds, but the bug in Gtk+ still
exists.
