23.0.60; Fatal error (11) using emacsclient

[M G Berberich]

Hello,
If DISPLAY is set to “:0” emacs crashes with SIGSEGV (Segmentation
fault) when a “emacsclient -c“ session is finished.

This does not occur when “DISPLAY=:0.0” or emacsclient is called
without the “-c” Option.

sorry for not having debuging-information :(

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

See etc/PROBLEMS:

** Emacs compiled with Gtk+ crashes when closing a display (x-close-connection).

This happens because of bugs in Gtk+.  Gtk+ 2.10 seems to be OK.  See bug
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85715.
