It was running on RHEL AS4; I believe it's version 4.2.  Here's the Linux version: 

$ uname -a
Linux euxconnlx 2.6.9-103.EL.msdw.1largesmp #1 SMP Mon Dec 12 13:34:16 EST 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I don't have root access here, so I'm not able to run the debuginfo-install command.  I had a look around for debugging versions of these libraries, with no success.  Building them myself is a last resort, but this would take a lot of time, which is something I'm afraid I don't have right now!

I'm sorry if that's not much help.  If you're unable to investigate further without the debugging stack trace, I completely understand.  I think it's the second time that Emacs has crashed on me since about 1988, so I won't be too upset.  If the problem does turn out to be recurring, and ideally reproducible, I'll certainly see what I can do to gather more debugging information.

Thanks very much,

MJ
