Since nobody seems able to reproduce your failure, you might try
debugging it, at least to the point of failure, yourself.  You should
be able to recompile the XWin.exe in debug mode and start it up in in
gdb, and when the crash occurs you should get an annotated function
trace with add'l debug info...

I think the -DEBUG version is just one with Ralf's new parameter checks,
not really a debug version, so you'll really have to recompile with the -g
option...
