twice today, while i was not in my office at all, my x server
died. i suspected malloc failure. looking back, i find the
following ``interesting'' entries in /usr/adm/X0.msgs

note that there is only one notation for today, but
two events. also note two ``free'' errors and two
data-segment-exceeded errors.
is this related to my going to mwm? in other words,
i'm guessing that larger binaries and decorations
are tickling this problem...
