What are recommended ways to debug an X server?  There is a client
(info explorer on AIX 3.1 on the RS/6000) which always causes my X
server (an IBM rt/pc running BSD 4.3) to crash with a core dump.   The
same client also causes X servers on RS/6000's running Mach 2.5 to
freeze up.  To my way of thinking this is certainly a bug on the part
of the servers, but it would be neccessary to find out what sort of
trash this client is sending.
