Ok, it locked up again while handling the radar GIFs.  That was the last thing Xastir seems to be doing as it's the message that was at the bottom in the status bar when it froze.  No bulletin box was up this time, it just froze on its own.  It had downloaded the map just fine when I started Xastir.

I guess next thing to try is a different window manager.
