xemacs crash when fontifying files


I've recently noticed that xemacs will crash if one attempts to turn on
syntax highlighting via turn-on-font-lock (even started with the -q option),
but only if run under X.  (If X is not running, there is no problem.)  The
crash causes the following to print:

Lisp backtrace follows:

  dispatch-non-command-events()
  # (condition-case ... . ((nil)))
  progress-feedback-dispatch-non-command-events()
  # bind (tmsg top frame value message label)
  append-progress-feedback(font-lock "Fontifying recdabas.c..." 0 nil)
  # bind (frame value message label)

  # bind (str)
  # (unwind-protect ...)
  # bind (args value fmt label)

Segmentation fault (core dumped)


Although I don't use XEmacs a lot, I do have it configured as the editor to
use for entering configuration control check-in messages, so I think the
problem must be fairly recent or I would have noticed it before.

(If this problem is better posted to the Cygwin-xfree list, let me know and
I'll post it there.)
