Actually what happens seems a bit random.  This time I did get an 
update to collect debugging info but it told me:

GDB could not be found on your system.  Debugging information will be 
obtained.   However as I went to the next panels, it eventually asked 
me to fill out a but report form.  At that time, I could not type 
anything.  Anything I typed went into the Athena login window.

If someone wants to wander to W91, I could demonstrate easily.
