*Please* try *hard* to obtain a C stack backtrace; without it, we are unlikely
to be able to analyze the problem.  Locate the core file produced as a result
of this crash (often called `core' or `core.<process-id>', and located in
the directory in which you started XEmacs or your home directory).

If you didn't get a core file, then try running XEmacs under the
debugger and eliciting the crash.

I will try to replicate myself, but if nobody here manages to do so,
we'll need your help to get the essential information.

You can possibly avoid the crash by configuring with --with-xim=no.
