You probably have enough odd stuff in your crafty.rc that Crafty is
managing to send its default "White" prompt to WinBoard before going
into xboard mode, where it doesn't send those prompts.  You can
probably prevent this by passing the xboard command on Crafty's
command line:  -fcp "crafty xboard"

If this doesn't fix it, or you want to investigate further, run
WinBoard with the -debug flag, reproduce the bug, and look at the
WinBoard.debug file produced.  Feel free to mail me a copy of the file
to look at.
