Hmm, so it happened in one of the modules.

Maybe - I can't reproduce it though. I use dillo a lot ( but not as much
as I used to - it's too unstable and now konqueror is usable ), maybe
that's another bug in the font rendering code. So, what /exactly/
triggers the crash? Maybe I just didn't look at the right stuff.

On the other hand, these would most likely trigger SIGSEGV or SIGBUS,
but not SIGILL. Did you use any weird LDFLAGS or CFLAGS when building X?
For instance - accidentially building the Xserver with pthread support
leads to /very/ odd crashes ( but these would show a thoroughly hosed
stack in the backtrace ).

have fun
Michael
