Emacs version: 19.25 IBM RS6000 AIX 3.2.5 ./configure rs6000-ibm-aix --with-x11 --with-x-toolkit No modifications to emacs source IBM's X server; All clients MIT. To produce the error, do the following: From the src directory in the distribution emacs xfns.c & From within emacs C-x 5 f xterm.c Now, restart the window manager from the menu. The emacs will die with exit code 70, and something will print X protocol error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) on protocol request 40 I produced this error with two different window managers, one of which was twm (the other is ncdwm, which I suspect is not generally available).
