I just verified the bug report and it happens under BSD on the vax

Simpler scenario:

1: select a message
2: Press reply
3: make mods to the resulting comp/repl window
4: Press close ( a window pops up asking to confirm)
5: Press close (another window will pop up)
6: Confirm in the top pop up. (repl window goes away)
7: Confirm in other pop up.

Crash, boom, smash....

I suspect that it is xmh getting confused as the item the popup is in
regard to no longer exists.

If I get a chance, I'll see how hard it would be to fix tomorrow.
