So please run Emacs under GDB, and in X synchronous mode (see
etc/DEBUG for details), and when it crashes during shutdown, show the
full backtrace produced by GDB (the "thread apply all bt" command when
GDB kicks in).

I think I understand what causes this problem, but more detailed
backtrace is needed to make sure my understanding is correct and the
solution is right.

Thanks.
