Thanks for the bug report.

The current XWin version is 1.15.1-2.  Perhaps you could try again with 
that?

If that doesn't resolve your problem, I'm afraid that the log doesn't 
contain enough information for me to identify the cause of the crash.

Could you then install the xorg-server-debuginfo package, which enables 
a more useful backtrace to be generated in the log, and try again?

With 1.15.1, I also enabled a tool I have been working to automate 
sending better crash information using minidumps.  If you would like to 
try that, download it from [1] (anonymous ftp) and put it into /usr/bin 
and reproduce your crash again.
