[Xastir] PNG snapshot problem

Here is more information to hopefully help isolate the problem:

I can create a PNG snapshot with 
	no maps
	tigermap
	terraserver

But it crashes when I use the toposerver.  Here is what happens in the
~/.xastir/tmp directory:

-rw-rw-rw-    1 chare    chare         221 Oct 13 22:21 snapshot.geo
-rw-rw-rw-    1 chare    chare      593133 Oct 13 22:20 snapshot.png
-rw-rw-rw-    1 chare    chare     1282996 Oct 13 22:20 snapshot.xpm

I got a new snapshot.geo file, but the .png and .xpm were not updated.  

I got a different error this time
[chare at zeta xastir]$ src/xastir
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x6963a2)!
