[Bug: 21.4.15] hang when killing text

[zappala at carmelo.cs.byu.edu]

================================================================
Dear Bug Team!

xemacs will hang when I kill text with control-k or control-w (after
highlighting a region).  CPU utilization for X spikes to 99% during
this time.  The bug does not occur when I start xemacs with "-nw"
to avoid X.  I am using xorg 6.8.0-r3.
