firebird and xemacs locking up/crashing "in pairs"???

[Palle Girgensohn]

Well, shutting off type-ahead-search (the single best feature of firebird, 
btw) does not really help. I cannot reproduce the core dump as before, but 
firebird and xemacs still lock up in pairs. Just had this experience, and 
firebird would work even though I killed all its processes and restarted 
the application! Firebird shoed up, but never tried accessing any URLs. 
Started mozilla instead, worked fine... Then I realized that xemacs was 
hung, killed it and bingo, firebird works again. Is this also a known 
problem?

Regards,
Palle
