xfig problems (modular xorg-related?)

["Steven M. Bellovin" <smb%cs.columbia.edu@localhost>]

I'm unable to use xfig -- dumps core when I click on File, Edit, or
View.  I had used it successfully a few months ago, with monolithic
xorg; I'm using it (freshly compiled) with modular xorg.  Here's the
backtrace:

#0  0xbb8c4e67 in kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.12
#1  0xbb9674d8 in abort () from /usr/lib/libc.so.12
#2  0x080b07ec in goodbye ()

from /usr/pkg/lib/libXt.so.6 #9  0xbbadceb0 in XtDispatchEvent ()
from /usr/pkg/lib/libXt.so.6 #10 0x08082409 in main ()

The message displayed when it crashes is:

xfig3.2.5-alpha5: SIGSEGV signal trapped
xfig: figure empty or not modified - exiting
Abort (core dumped)
