  It's built by Fedora (RedHat).  I have debugging info but I belive

  I dont know how to reproduce this with or without 'emacs -Q' but
  it has happened to me periodically so I decided to finally
  report it

  I'll leave the sessuon around as long as I can.

  I hope someone can help me to debug it.

  Thanks.
