Segfault with xfdesktop tonight

[Marc Schwartz]

Hi all,

Just updated tonight to the latest cvs version. I am getting a segfault
with xfdesktop. This is on FC2.

There were no errors reported in configure or with make.

I ran it under gdb and get the following:

This is new as of tonight. I updated a couple of days ago and did not
have this issue.

It is getting late here and I am on a plane early in the morning for a
long weekend with my wife. I will do whatever I can to assist in
tracking this down further, but after this evening, I likely won't have
net access until late tomorrow at the hotel.

Is it related to the cygwin issue I saw earlier?

Thanks,

Marc
