AW: 1.9.2.0: Xwin SIGSEGV when font server should be queried

The previous version, that was stable for xorg-server was 1.8.2-1,
according to setup.log.

The gdb stack trace is not very talkative:
...
Loaded symbols for /usr/bin/cygXrender-1.dll
[Switching to thread 8788.0x2740]
(gdb) c
Continuing.
(no debugging symbols found)

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to thread 8788.0x1178]
0x005508b5 in ?? ()
(gdb) bt full
#0  0x005508b5 in ?? ()
No symbol table info available.
#1  0x0000000c in ?? ()
No symbol table info available.
#2  0x005fa120 in ?? ()
No symbol table info available.
#3  0x00000000 in ?? ()
No symbol table info available.

I will download current source and compile it with -g .

Something funny about it:
I had the "xset fp+ tcp/mystique:7100" commented out in the
.startxwinrc.
Then I started XWin, attached the gdb and issued the xset command from
within a AIX aixterm shell.
Then I started a window that has to use a font server font and it
worked.

Then I activated the xset command in the .startxwinrc again and the XWin
crashed again.
I keep on researching.
