Bug Description

Ubuntu 9.10
meta package emacs 23.1+1-4ubuntu2+22.2+0ubuntu6.1
brings in package emacs22-gtk 22.2-0ubuntu6.1

Emacs freezes gnome if
 (1) I try to switch away (alt-tab), OR
 (2) try to resize the window

A few threads on ubuntu forums suggest other see similar symptoms.

In thread (d), someone suggested I attach /var/log/kern.log. There is segfault in there, but only the last three lines were produced while I was reproducing the bug for this report.

FWIW, this doesn't happen with the current bzr trunk of emacs.
