I have had the same problem.  When I reach the end of a line in a
multiline text widget, sometimes the word correctly wraps to the next
line, and sometimes things start flashing and I have to kill the
application.

Another problem I have had is that even when I set
autoShowCursorPosition, the text does not scroll to show the line the
cursor is on as I type several lines.  Eventually, I can't see what I'm
typing.
