Dunno about that specific one, but I've tested quite a few versions and all were
unstable. Once I wanted to check if it's just Linux-specific bug, and compiled
it on HP, R6000 and SGI. All the same, except HP, which had then an old
gcc-1.4.2. That was very stable. When I later recompiled xwpe on HP with newer
gcc, it became unstable also.
