;-)

So I give up again. But before that let me say this:

- Michael pointed out it seems somehow to be related to frames (system calls?)
- I have seen crashes related to frame creation (system calls!). I
actually fixed some of it but I never had time to get it into Emacs or
explain why. (I do not remember and do not have time to dive into it
again.)
- I disabled some automatic frame creation in my .emacs since they
caused menu corruption and crashes (system calls?)
