I've had similar problems when sending rude postscript through YAP. I'm trying to remember exactly what I was doing. I think it was in a for loop, and I ended up scaling by 1.0/loopvariable, and the loopvariable went through 0. I think that killed the window server (and I can see why, it'd take a while to draw anything with that scaling).
