Yup, I've noticed that too. There are more programs that crash the X server,
lesstif being one of them too. I can't run the mozilla binary from
sunsite.auc.dk either.

It's an afb planar bug. It is triggered by the shared memory extension, at
least this one. The crasher in Lesstif is something else. I tried looking
into it myself, but my knowledge of the X server and Amiga planar modes is
fairly minimal.
