That's very unlikely since I use it myself.  I switched back to the
lucid package a while ago because I got tired of having emacs lock up
and peg the cpu any time you were unexpectedly disconnected from a
--daemon session (i.e. if you lose the connection from a remote
emacsclient buffer).

When I investigated (IIRC I discussed it upstream), it looked like there
was a fundamental problem in the way GTK+ handles X connections, and
there was nothing emacs could do about it.  Since I didn't care *at all*
about the GTK+ interface I dropped it.

I suspect there's a real bug here, so we'll leave it open.  I imagine we
(or upstream) will track it down eventually.

Thanks for the help
