This isn't a crash.  The Xwin server is terminating with a error.

This error says that XWin couldn't start an XDMCP session as the remote host 
declined for the reason stated.

Since your XWin can start XDMCP sessions with other remote hosts, I think this 
is a bug or configuration error in your Fedora 11 host.
