OK, this problem is associated with shared memory I think.. it doesn't
crash if the same binary is being run on a different machine, talking to
the same X server on my machine.

Could it be the kernel, and the same as our other current problem with
multiple use of the same copy of the emacs binary crashing?

What really are my chances of building NetBSD-current? I just tried, and it
fell during compilation - is it worth fixing, have there been shared memory
changes?

And where do I find the arm specific X server sources too?
