All I can glean from this is that while trying to use a X_ChangeGC
command in the code the program urped.  We use three pixmaps in
Xastir.  During a screen update we can update anywhere from one to
all three of them.  This is a regular operation that happens
constantly in the code.

I would suspect possible bad memory in the computer, or more likely
you're using the LessTIF library instead of OpenMotif or Motif.  I'd
try switching to Openmotif/Openmotif-devel packages after removing
the LessTif packages to see if the problem goes away.
